Cognitive biases are limitations in our thinking that can lead to irrational decisions and judgments. They are caused by our brain’s tendency to use mental shortcuts to make sense of the world around us. At QMAK, our “Question More, Action Knowledge” philosophy emphasizes the importance of nurturing a mindset of active questioning and discovery.
Cognitive biases can have a significant impact on our lives. They can lead to us making poor financial decisions, choosing unhealthy relationships, and even putting ourselves in danger. However, by being aware of these biases, we can take steps to reduce their impact on our thinking and make more rational decisions.
Here are some common cognitive biases:
Confirmation Bias
When we seek out and interpret information that confirms our existing beliefs.
Framing Effect
When our decisions are influenced by the way information is presented.
Anchoring Bias
