Key Concepts for critical thinking about treatment claims

Confusing claims about the effects of treatments – from drugs to diets – are everywhere. People need to know how to assess these claims, using fair comparisons to inform their treatment choices.

Key Concepts for assessing treatment claims provide the foundation for organising the resources in The Critical thinking and Appraisal Resource Library (CARL). Select a Key Concept to display explanatory and illustrative resources.

The learning resources in CARL are for teachers (of children, young people and adults), communicators, advisors, and researchers, who wish to help people assess treatment claims.
