Causal Inference Demystifies Statistical Paradoxes

This article explores how causal inference can demystify statistical paradoxes by distinguishing between correlation and causation. It explains that causal inference provides a framework to understand "what if" scenarios and make evidence-based decisions. The piece uses classic examples, such as Simpson's Paradox and the Berkeley dataset, to illustrate how causal inference clarifies these phenomena by revealing true cause-and-effect relationships. AI
