Here are the 26 most studied and widely accepted cognitive biases. 1. Bandwagon effect - the tendency to do (or believe) things because many other people do (or believe) the same. Related to groupthink, herd behaviour, and manias. Carl Jung pioneered the idea of the collective unconscious which is considered by Jungian psychologists to be responsible for this cognitive bias. 2. Bias blind spot - the tendency not to compensate for one’s own cognitive biases. 3. Choice-supportive bias - the tendency to remember one’s choices as better than they actually were. emmineb Tue, 29 May 2007 15:30:19 GMT http://www.healthbolt.net/2007/02/14/26-reasons-what-you-think-is-right-is-wrong/ astroboy Tue, 29 May 2007 06:52:13 GMT
