Cognitive Bias

Psychology

I've been looking up one cognitive bias a day to learn more about why we do the things that we do that don't make any sense. Here's what I've learned so far.

The Cognitive Bias Podcast: Pilot - The Bandwagon Effect

Why do we keep doing the thing even when it's no longer worth doing the thing?

Irrational Escalation

We react to low probability events as if they had a really high probability because our brains can't do math good.

Neglect of Probability

Does simply seeing something over and over make you like it more? Generally speaking, yes. Even if you have no idea what it is.

Mere Exposure Effect

It always takes longer to get things done than we think it will, even when we've done those exact same things before.

Planning Fallacy

Special guest Kevin Smokler, author of "Brat Pack America: A Love Letter to 80's Teen Movies", joins Dave to talk about why we remember stuff (including movies) from the ages of 10-30 better than any other time.

Aristotle thought that rationality was the faculty that distinguished humans from other animals. However, psychological research shows that our judgments are plagued by systematic, irrational, unconscious errors known as ‘cognitive biases.’ In light of this research, can we really be confident in the superiority of human rationality? How much should we trust our own judgments when we are aware of our susceptibility to bias and error? And does our awareness of these biases obligate us to counter them? The Philosophers shed their biases with Brian Nosek from the University of Virginia, co-Founder and Executive Director of the Center for Open Science.

The Persona, for Jung, was the social face the individual presented to the world - 'a kind of mask, designed on the one hand to make a definite impression upon others, and on the other to conceal the true nature of the individual'.
