What Is Confirmation Bias? | Psychological Explanation & Examples 

The power of the belief, this shows the importance of being a person who make his our research before a desicion in order to take care about his own interest.

Thinking that you will never fall victim to a confirmation bias is, in itself, a confirmation bias.

A very interesting topic to consider...we have to actively seek out information and points of view that challenge our beliefs.

LOVE the chocolate analogy!

All has sense now... our brain filtrate information since our world overview and if them prove our beliefs :O

Itś a very interesting topic and the example of chocolate is perfect for understanding.

Wow this was nice and straight forward thanks so much

it is always necessary to have other points of view

I was searching for a short video to help someone understand this concept, but unfortunately, the opening line of the video, while accurate, might not be the best way to approach the topic without causing offense. It captures the idea well, but I'm hesitant to directly tell them that their behavior is annoying. 😅

Better than expected.

nice explantion

There’s confirmation bias, but there’s also backing up your viewpoint with evidence.

Heating a bag of chocolate will make it melt, so don't get in arguments with your friends or your bag of chocolate will be harder to eat. Got it.

Nobody’s right if everybody’s wrong

I love these videos

I had a different type of confirmation bias what I say it happens weird but real

As an academic with many years of constantly questioning and critically evaluating my own work, I still can´t help to sometimes fall in this trap. Hence why we´ve always had neighbor groups working with similar projects that gets to assess our results and give feedback (n vice versa ofc). The confirmation bias is not an issue in itself so long as the mind stays flexible and is able to quickly and undramaticly change their point of view when facts are presented. One would think this is "common sense" that when your world view turns out to be faulty, you adopt the new one... however some people are unbelievably proud and petty and wont change their mind unless they believe it was they themselves who derived the new conclusion. This video was just 2 minutes long but when asked if we recognized these people, I got instantly triggered! Whenever you face those impossible fools there´s really nothing to be said or done than just budge and let them have it their way.

there is no confirmation bias in religion ... any religion

After 2.5 hrs, it is my exam. And my preparation is so bad LOL. Pray for me. 🫣
