For example, if the constructs used to represent the cause and effect are problematic in terms of their definitions and measurements, this will have consequences for all other aspects of validity and will seriously affect the validity of the causal claims.
So I find the markets all have trouble processing cause and effect in the short-term and people get all confused.
Eriugena, however, thinks of cause and effect as mutually dependent, relative terms (V 910d-912b): a cause is not a cause unless it produces an effect, an effect is always the effect of a cause.
