Problem Statement Triggers °© Vary the stress pattern-try placing emphasis on different words and phrases. Choose a term that has an explicit definition and substitute the explicit definition in each place that the term appears. » Make an opposite statement, change positives to negatives, and vice versa. ° Change "every" to "some," "always" to "sometimes," "sometimes" to "never," and vice versa. © Replace "persuasive words" in the problem statement such as "obviously," "clearly," and "certainly" with the argument it is supposed to be replacing. ©» Express words in the form of an equation or picture, and ۷۱6 ۰
