The best way to review/study bias, adjective order, and logic pitfalls! Play with your friends :)
Topics of this game:
- "you make a decision based on one thing, even though it may be wrong"
- "adopting certain behaviours just because other people do them"
- "the tendency for a person to overestimate their abilities"
- a decision that's based on the outcome of past events, without regard to how it happened
- "the tendency to remember our choices as better than they actually were"
- tendency not to notice info. that causes emotional discomfort and contradict our beliefs
- "when people often avoid negative information, including feedback that could help"
- to search, interpret, favor, and recall information in a way that confirms one's beliefs
- "noticing other's biases but not your own"
- focusing on the people/things that made it past some process; not noticing the failures
- "feeling the effects of a fake treatment/substance"
- "to rely too heavily on the first piece of information we are given about a topic"
- Adjective Order is:
- Comes when you base your conclusion on a small amount of results
- The thinking that C = A + B instead of looking at the facts A + B maybe = C.
- A person makes a claim that one event leads to another event and so on until we come to
- Not an actual “expert” but is just making themselves or the person appear as an expert.
- When companies trick people because lots of people like a product, it's great.
- When individuals believe if they can scare the public, people will follow them.
- People believe they only have two options and that there can never be a “middle ground”.
