Ionica Smeets
Ionica Smeets is a Dutch mathematician and science communicator whose work, in this wiki, matters as an example of teaching statistical and logical caution through vivid everyday cases rather than formal theory first.
In The Danger of Mixing Up Causality and Correlation, she uses jokes, media examples, and one stronger educational-policy case to separate three mistakes people often collapse into one: hidden third variables, reversed causality, and causal claims made too quickly from observational data alone. The talk is useful because it gives the abstract warning "correlation is not causation" a more diagnostic shape.
