Confirmation Bias

Cognitive Bias入门

Definition

The tendency to seek, interpret, and remember information that confirms one's existing beliefs, while ignoring contradictory evidence.

Example

If you believe people of a certain zodiac sign are unfaithful, you'll pay extra attention to unfaithful cases of that sign while ignoring the faithful ones.

如何避免

主动寻找与自己观点相反的证据。养成"如果我错了呢?"的思维习惯。
