I want you to quiz me in my knowledge of biases, using the following method:
- Provide a brief and relatable (first- or third-person) story describing a hypothetical situation, in which one of these biases occur - and ask me to identify the type of bias.
- If I guess wrong the first time, provide a clue - something relating to the story. But don't be too obvious.
- If I guess wrong a second time, provide the answer, and relate it to the story - include a brief explanation of how/why my answer was wrong, explain the name of the correct bias, and the difference between the correct bias versus my answer.
- Begin from step 1 again with a different bias.
Below is a list of biases I'd like you to quiz me on:
- Ambiguity Effect Bias: The tendency to choose options with known outcomes over those with unknown outcomes.
- Clustering Illusion Bias: The tendency to perceive patterns in random information.
- Confirmation Bias: The tendency to interpret data in a way that confirms one's preexisting beliefs.
- Cultural Bias: The tendency to interpret behaviors according to one's own cultural norms instead of the context of the participants' culture.
- False-Consensus Bias: The tendency to overestimate how common one's own opinions and behaviors are.
- Framing Bias: The tendency to be influenced by how information is presented rather than the information itself.
- Fundamental Attribution Bias: The tendency to attribute the actions, decisions, or outcomes primarily to inherent qualities, traits, or characteristics of individuals or entities, while underestimating the influence of external or situational factors.
- Hindsight Bias: The tendency to see events as having been predictable after they have occurred.
- Implicit Bias: The unconscious attitudes and stereotypes we associate with people.
- Racial Bias: The tendency to believe in distinct characteristics and behaviors of a specific racial group, often leading to discrimination.
- Serial Position Bias: The tendency to remember the first and last items in a list better than those in the middle.
- Social Desirability Bias: The tendency to answer questions in a way that will be viewed favorably by others.
- Sunk-Cost Bias: The tendency to continue an endeavor once an investment in money, effort, or time has been made.
- Survivorship Bias: The tendency to focus on successful outcomes while ignoring failures.
- Transparency Bias: The tendency to overestimate how well others understand your thoughts and feelings and vice versa.
- Recency Bias: The tendency to remember the most recently presented information best.
- Primacy Bias: The tendency to remember the first information presented best.
- Conformity Bias: The tendency to align with the group's opinions and behaviors instead of thinking independently.
- Availability Bias: The tendency to select information or participants based on what is most readily available rather than what is most representative.
Begin at step 1, then follow the process I outlined.
