We first spoke about this in Episode 218, and now we're returning for a part 2. Cognitive Biases are ways our brains can trick us into certain beliefs and behaviours without realising, and in this episode, I'll cover a few of them such as the IKEA Effect, the Recency Effect, and the Negativity Bias.They're fascinating to learn, but will also give you some insight to make you a better language learner.Show notes page - https://levelupenglish.school/podcast320Sign Up for Free Lessons - https://www.levelupenglish.school/#freelessonsJoin Level Up English - https://courses.levelupenglish.schoolBy becoming a member, you can access all podcast transcripts, listen to the private podcast and join live lessons and courses on the website.

One of the most important metrics for a mobile app is its conversion rate. It tells you how many people that use the app for free become your paying customers. It's about how profitable and sustainable your app is. Now, if you are one of the die-hard Pink Floyd fans, you gotta love their song The Wall. If you are an app marketer, your wall is the paywall :-) Among many tools that you may use to increase the number of people who become your paying customers, once they hit the paywall, are cognitive biases. You may heard of them if you have a peripheral interest in psychology. Today, Max will tell you about using cognitive biases to significantly increase your app's conversion rate. Today's topics include: Max Amelang's bio About PreMatch Ethical boundaries in cognitive biases The most underrated cognitive biases High-impact experiments with paywalls Android or iOS? Leaving his  smartphone at home, what features would Max miss most? What features he would like to see added to his smartphone? Links and Resources: Max Amelang on LinkedIn Prematch website Business Of Apps - connecting the app industry Quotes from Max Amelang "Yeah, it's absolutely a valid question because especially in the beginning, it's extremely tempting to see all of these tools you can use to somehow increase this conversion rate by margin or by another percent and so on. But then I also quickly realized not only as a product manager, but also as a user, how would I feel if I stumble across this? " "Obviously I know the tricks, so maybe I need to be a bit harder in order to define if something is good or not so good anymore. And I then came up with like, how would my parents behave on this paywall? Because parents just as a symbol for an older generation that are not as native with mobile apps. And I always am fascinated when I see how my dad navigates his app and when I realize, why did he just click on this button because it's blinking quicker? And I realized, okay, this is how easily he's influenced. So as a very soft first test, I'm thinking about, okay, how would my dad would behave on this paywall? Would he buy just because of the cognitive biases or would he still be able to make his own decision?" Host Business Of Apps - connecting the app industry since 2012

How to craft communication that your audience will remember.Why do some messages stick, while others go in one ear and out the other? When it comes to crafting memorable communication, Ada Aka says not all verbiage is created equal. “Certain words are intrinsically more memorable than others,” says Aka, an assistant professor of marketing at Stanford Graduate School of Business. In her research of consumer behavior and decision-making, she's uncovered how language shapes not just our perception of the world, “but how the world stays with us over time." From concrete terms to emotionally charged ones, certain words have more staying power than others, and to communicators who want to capture audiences (and keep them), she says, “Carefully chosen words, they're going to be taking the attention.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Aka joins Matt Abrahams to explore the science of memorable communication. From creating brand slogans that stick to choosing words that align with your message, she reveals how to create communication that won't be forgotten.Episode Reference Links:Ada AkaEp.80 Magic Words: Change What You Say to Inspire and Influence Others Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:05) - The Power of Words in Memory (03:45) - What Makes Words Memorable?

How to turn latent motivation into fuel for change.If you want to be a changemaker, you'll have to convince others to join your cause. But according to Dan Heath, persuading your audience isn't about creating new motivation — it's about leveraging the motivation that's already there.“The most important fuel for any change effort is motivation,” says Heath, the number-one New York Times bestselling author of Reset: How to Change What's Not Working. Instead of struggling to persuade people to want what you want, Heath suggests finding where your goals overlap with the things they already desire. "Before you even get to persuasion, if you can just tap and unleash the energy that's already there, you've already catapulted yourself toward success,” he says.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Heath and host Matt Abrahams explore how to create more compelling communication using “leverage points,” or as Heath says, “where a little bit of effort yields a disproportionate return.” Whether getting buy-in from one teammate or achieving change across an entire organization, Heath shares practical tips for turning latent motivation into an engine for change.Get more done with Grammarly.

Why This Episode Is a Must-Watch In a world where financial decisions can be deeply influenced by emotions and biases, understanding how these factors play a role in investment strategy is crucial. This episode of “Inspired Money” dives deep into behavioral finance to uncover the predictable irrationality in our investment choices. Are you letting fear and greed drive your financial decisions? Discover strategies to navigate biases and invest more rationally by tuning in. Meet the Expert Panelists Colin Camerer is a pioneering behavioral economist and neuroeconomist known for integrating psychology and neuroscience into economic decision-making. As the Robert Kirby Professor of Behavioral Finance and Economics at Caltech, he researches neuroeconomics, behavioral game theory, decision science, and the neuroscience of economic choices, earning him a MacArthur Fellowship in 2013 and an honorary doctorate from the Stockholm School of Economics in 2019. Tom Howard is a pioneer in behavioral finance, best known for founding AthenaInvest and authoring the influential book Behavioral Portfolio Management. With over 35 years in academia and finance, he developed a groundbreaking approach that challenges traditional investment theory by focusing on how investors actually behave, revolutionizing portfolio management through a behavioral data-driven strategy. Annika Echarti, CFP® is a financial coach specializing in behavioral finance and financial psychology. With a background in accounting, law, and economics, she helps self-employed individuals and small business owners align their financial decisions with their goals and values, focusing on both practical strategies and the psychology behind money habits. Megan McCoy, Ph.D., LMFT, AFC®, CFT™ is an Assistant Professor at Kansas State University's Department of Personal Financial Planning, where she specializes in financial therapy, financial well-being, and the dynamics of couples' financial interactions, and has published extensively on these topics while also contributing as a board member of the Financial Therapy Association and co-editor of the Financial Planning Review. Key Highlights: Cognitive Biases Unveiled: According to Colin Camerer, “Fear and greed are real and are actually in the brain.” He explains how these emotions manifest during market bubbles, revealing deep insights into investor behavior. Recognizing these mental states can help investors maintain discipline amidst market fluctuations. The Power of Planning: Tom Howard highlights that “myopic loss aversion is the most important mistake that investors make,” emphasizing the role of structured investment plans and predefined sell rules. By anchoring decisions to clear guidelines, investors can mitigate the biases that lead to costly errors. Aligning Financial Decisions with Values: Annika Echarti stresses the significance of aligning financial choices with personal values to overcome emotional biases. This strategic alignment helps investors make decisions that not only benefit their portfolios but also align with their life goals. The Role of Emotional Intelligence: Megan McCoy advocates for the development of emotional intelligence to recognize financial biases. Through self-awareness and exercises like the money egg, investors can unpack early money-related experiences to better understand their current biases. Call-to-Action Here's what I want you to do: the next time you're about to make an investment decision—pause. Ask yourself: Is this decision based on a solid strategy, or is it driven by emotion? Write down your reasoning before taking action. Even just becoming aware of your thought process can help you make smarter choices. Let's start investing more intentionally and less emotionally. Let me know in the comments—what's one bias you've noticed in your own financial decisions? Find the Inspired Money channel on YouTube or listen to Inspired Money in your favorite podcast player.

Our words, actions and even our presence can profoundly affect other people, but we often misread the situation or underestimate ourselves. Emotions and cognitive biases often get in the way.Through extensive behavioral research and workplace study, Vanessa Bohns — the Cornell ILR School's Braunstein Family Professor and chair of the organizational behavior department — has developed strategies for us to better observe our influence, reconsider our fear of rejection and sometimes even use our influence more sparingly. Bohns, the author of “You Have More Influence Than You Think,” encourages us to recognize the influence we already possess rather than seeking new ways to gain it.What You'll LearnHow to be more mindful and present in your interactions with othersHow to get better at asking for thingsHow to get better at saying noHow to recognize and harness our influence for good by building stronger relationships and creating more supportive environmentsThe Cornell Keynotes podcast is brought to you by eCornell, which offers more than 200 online certificate programs to help professionals advance their careers and organizations.

Send us a textIn this thought-provoking live session, host Lira Ndifon delves into the crucial concept of self-awareness and its profound impact on personal growth and self-reflection. Lira explores the multifaceted nature of self-awareness, defining it as a conscious understanding of your thoughts, feelings, emotions, behaviors, belief systems, and actions, as well as an awareness of the emotions and behaviors of others. She emphasizes that self-awareness is not merely observation but also the ability to express and explain your ideas and emotions effectively.Lira stresses the importance of understanding your core beliefs without judgment. She points out that self-awareness often involves a judgmental component, where individuals critically assess their thoughts and actions. However, true self-awareness requires self-acceptance and self-love, recognizing that judgment only perpetuates negative energy and hinders personal growth. She reminds listeners that self-awareness is a continuous journey of self-discovery, prompting the powerful question, "Who am I?" This journey encourages introspection into your feelings, asking questions like, "What am I feeling?" "How did this make me feel?" and "What drives my behaviors?"The conversation shifts to the concept of change, which Lira describes as the only constant in life. She emphasizes the importance of being open to change, both consciously and unconsciously, and how this openness allows for greater self-awareness and personal development. Lira suggests that resistance to change can lead to stagnation, while embracing it creates opportunities for growth. She then transitions into a discussion about identifying limited beliefs, which she describes as obstacles to personal expansion.Lira explains how recognizing negative thought patterns is crucial in identifying limited beliefs. She encourages listeners to pay attention to their inner dialogue, particularly during moments of failure or discomfort. She also touches on the concept of cognitive biases and how they contribute to limited thinking. Lira uses the example of political polarization to illustrate how conformational bias can hinder understanding and create division. She emphasizes the importance of recognizing that everyone operates from a limited perspective and that being open to other viewpoints fosters empathy and compassion.Finally, Lira offers practical advice on identifying limited beliefs, emphasizing the importance of self-compassion and patience. She encourages listeners to examine the origins of their beliefs, questioning whether they are truly their own or a product of external influences. She also cautions against the societal pressures that can lead to feelings of inadequacy and emphasizes that true self-worth comes from within. Lira concludes by promoting her coaching services, book, and partnership with Prolong, encouraging listeners to embark on their own self-reflection journeys.Don't forget to like, follow, and subscribe to the Self-Reflection Podcast on all your favorite platforms – Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, YouTube, and more!

A double definition of happiness — and how to cultivate both parts.The new year gives us an opportunity to reflect on who we are and who we want to be. As we set resolutions and prepare for evolutions, this special four-part series on communication, happiness, and well-being explores practical ways to enhance our lives through better communication, deeper connections, and more meaningful choices.There's no one-size-fits-all approach to happiness, but according to Laurie Santos, everyone needs the two key components of contentment and fulfillment — or as she puts it, being happy in your life and happy with your life.“Being happy in your life [means] your life is filled with joy,” explains Santos, a Yale psychology professor and host of The Happiness Lab podcast. This felt sense of happiness — enjoying where we are, what we do, and who we're with — is essential, but it's not the only piece of the puzzle. Being happy with your life, she says, is the belief that “your life is going well. Being happy with your life gets closer to things like fulfillment and purpose.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Santos joins Matt Abrahams to explore how to cultivate both sides of her happiness equation, from building deeper connections with others to transforming the ways we communicate with ourselves.This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

Welcome back to the Information Entropy Podcast where this week are diving into the world of cognitive biases! Where do they come from and how does it impact our day to day lives? Mitch looks at the current TikTok banning as a springboard to assess the reactance bias, why are we reluctant to do things that we are told to do? He then dives into cognitive dissonance where we question performing actions that go against our morals but find ways to justify it. On the other side, Tom takes a question based approach looking at the study of heuristics and how we have to be careful of cognitive biases in science. Music: HOME - AWAY

One of the staples of app marketing is understanding of your customer. If you understand her needs, her likes and dislikes, her behavior, you can build a winning strategy to connect your app with people who will be your loyal users. Now, do you think people behave rationally, logically? Sometimes they do but way more often their behavior is influenced by biases, cognitive biases. Wonder what this is and how it connects to app marketing? You've come to the right place, in this episode Angèle will answer these questions for you. Today's Topics Include: Angèle Lenglemetz bio What is Cleo AI What are cognitive biases Striking a balance between leveraging cognitive biases and ensuring ethical practices Fitting using cognitive biases into the broader app development strategy Android or iOS? Leaving her smartphone at home, what features would Angèle miss most? What features she would like to see added to her  smartphone? Links and Resources: Angèle Lenglemetz on LinkedIn Cleo AI website Cognitive bias definition Business Of Apps - connecting the app industry Quotes from Angèle Lenglemetz: "Cognitive biases are like shortcuts that our brain takes to make decisions faster. They're really powerful because they tap into universal human tendencies, things like avoiding loss, valuing scarcity, or seeking closure. At Cleo, we use biases thoughtfully. One example is loss aversion. People feel the pain of losing more intensely, something more intensely than the joy of gaining the same thing. So we leverage this with features like saving streaks. If a user is consistently saving, Cleo will remind them like don't lose your streak and it's super simple but it taps into that innate desire to avoid loss and it actually really works." "I think as fun and as important as cognitive bias are, they are never more than like the icing on a solid cake. And they're amazing for enhancing an experience, but they won't work if the product itself doesn't solve a real problem. For app creators, my advice is therefore like first, focus on the fundamentals first. If your core product doesn't deliver value, no amount of nudging and cognitive bias layer you add to it will fix that." Host Business Of Apps - connecting the app industry since 2012
