#11 - People who browse the web for medical information

[danielacvazq]

Part of my confusion with this question is that I thought searching medical information online for the purpose of diagnosis was the new element introduce in the conclusion, so I chose A. Should I have not assumed that and diagnosis is covered under the umbrella "browsing the web for medical information"?

Hi danielacvazq!

You're right to identify diagnosis as a new element that appears for the first time in the stimulus. The problem with (A) is that it doesn't then connect this to the distinction made between scientifically valid information and quackery. Answer choice (B) does this, however, which is why it is able to bridge a connection between the premises and the new element in the conclusion.
