Anyone knows a nice way to drill this skill? I was just reading one of Steven Byrne’s posts which made me notice that he is good at this and that I lack this skill currently? Also reminds me of Thinking in Systems which I read, found cool and then mostly went about my life not really applying this too much. I think I have a pretty good intuitive understanding of statistical causal relationships and have thought a lot about confounders. But I’ve never felt compelled to whip out a diagram.
You might want to explore the Thinking Processes developed by Eliyahu Goldratt, which are part of his Theory of Constraints. These processes, such as the Goal Tree and the Current Reality Tree, are excellent tools for visualizing complex issues and identifying causal relationships between different elements of a system. Additionally, since you mentioned statistics, I recommend “The Book of Why” by Judea Pearl.
