Anecdotal evidence refers to individual observations, personal experiences, or isolated examples that are used to support a claim or argument. It is based on specific instances or anecdotes rather than systematic data collection, scientific research, or statistical analysis.
A story is not a statistic. Anecdotal Evidence warns against
overvaluing single experiences over broader data. 📖📊
