What are cognitive biases?<\/p>\n

In essence, they are the way humans come to incorrect conclusions. You think you’re right, but you actually have no idea. Barry Ritholtz<\/a> recently published a presentation, released by the Royal Society of Account Planning<\/a>, states the following:<\/p>\n

“Such biases are thought to be a form of ‘cognitive shortcut,’ often upon rules of thumb, and include errors in statistical judgment, social attribution, and memory. These biases are a common outcome of human thought, and often drastically skew the reliability of anecdotal and legal evidence. The phenomenon is studied in cognitive science and social psychology<\/em>.”<\/p>\n

Basically, you shouldn’t go convincing yourself that you have your best interests at heart. Check out how  society ultimately judges itself. Across business disciplines — notably investing, but not solely — cognitive biases are extremely important.<\/p>\n
