What are Cognitive Biases?
Cognitive Biases are unconscious, automatic processes designed to make decision-making faster and more efficient. They can also be thought of as errors in thinking that lead you to misinterpret information from the world around you, affecting the rationality and accuracy of your judgments and decisions. Several factors -- such as heuristics (mental shortcuts), social pressures, and emotions -- incubate cognitive biases.
Awareness of Cognitive Biases
It is essential to be aware of potential biases, include others, and communicate effectively. Assessing your biases is an excellent first step toward bringing your unconscious to your conscious mind. And a comprehensive understanding of your biases will help you improve your judgments, decision-making, fairness, and relationships.
