sure i dont like where this pseudoscientific shit is going but go on
There is not a single human who is immune to it. The trap is that people think that it's something that *other* people experience
It's mainstream science I assure you
no many people are aware that they have confirmation bias
Lol you'd be surprised
Okay let me ask you. What's the difference between a mountain of evidence and someone having confirmation bias?
one is a mountain of evidence
ones a righty and the other is a lefty
Shane is in a mental prison still
No
the answer is there is no difference
i disagree
A mountain of evidence and confirmation bias feel the exact same way
facts have no feelings
there facts
When you learn persuasion this is one of the first things you learn
The problem with being a "fact based" person is that you never know the facts
That's just confirmation bias
there's methodology and statistics to acquire accurate information
Also, people disagree about what the facts are
across studies
are more likely to be true
Which is why facts will never change anyones mind
Nope.
you would think that's true, but it's not
simply because anyone can make a study say anything, and even if you encounter a study that violates your worldview....thats when cognitive dissonance kicks in
well if you took a stats course....
sounds likes thats your confirmation bias brss
It certainly might be!
Now you're catching on
this shit sounds gay
^thats cognitive dissonance
classic tell
if you encounter a study that violates your worldview you should assess it
It normally is triggered when you encounter a worldview that violates your own
and see if it uses proper methodology
and is repeatable
(if applicable)
And how do you know the information you're getting is accurate?
by what I just said
