The "Causation" principle

Causation refers to the relationship where one event or action directly leads to another. It means that a specific cause produces a specific effect, and the effect wouldn’t happen without the cause. For example, pushing a domino causes it to fall. Establishing causation involves showing that the cause happened before the effect, that they are connected, and that no other factors caused the effect. It’s a key concept in understanding how and why things happen, especially in science, law, and research, helping us determine whether actions truly result in certain outcomes.
