Also known as causation, cause and effect, causal mechanism

Causality is an influence by which one event, process, state, or subject (i.e., a cause) contributes to the production of another event, process, state, or object (i.e., an effect) where the cause is at least partly responsible for the effect, and the effect is at least partly dependent on the cause. The cause of something may also be described as the reason behind the event or process.

AI overview

Causality is the relationship where one thing directly influences and helps bring about another thing—for example, how a cause produces an effect and bears at least some responsibility for it. Understanding causality matters because it helps us identify the reasons behind events and processes, allowing us to make sense of how things happen in the world.
