ProCon.org serves as a non-biased information source that presents sourced pros and cons of debatable issues, as well as a host of reference information relevant to those issues, thoroughly researched and compiled by their research staff and editors. They use the pro and con format to achieve four objectives: 1) Expose readers to both sides of an issue in a side-by-side format to make it easier for them to see the difference in the facts and arguments offered by each side. 2) The pro and con format creates “beneficial confusion” that causes readers to struggle with well-presented opposing positions, and, therefore, to engage in evaluative thinking to formulate their own views. Readers who have a pre-existing view of an issue may feel more confident in their view, or they may change their view. In either case, many will recognize that the process of acquiring and critically evaluating information has a beneficial and satisfying effect on their decision-making. 3) Knowing what the “other side” may think can help readers feel more confident and comfortable in discussing and debating their views with others. 4) Using a format that challenges readers to examine both sides of an issue tends to reduce the likelihood that they will resort to the “demonization” of those who hold opposing views.
