Podcasts about Confirmation bias

«Ви не такі розумні. Чому у вас забагато друзів у Facebook? Чому ваша пам'ять це здебільшого вигадка? І 48 інших способів, як ви обманюєте себе» так звучить переклад повної назви книги Девіда МакРейні. Заголовок передає основний посил книжки, і її варто прочитати всім, хто хоча б раз у житті займався самообманом (тобто кожному).У книзі 48 видів логічних упереджень і концепцій поведінки людського мозку: від евристики доступності до ефекту стороннього (так званого синдрому Дженовезе). Автор описує всі явища просто і зрозуміло, розвіюючи ілюзії, які ми створюємо у своїй голові про себе. Кожен розділ починається з міфу — і завершується тверезою реальністю.У цьому епізоді:– Texas Sharpshooter Fallacy — як ми «малюємо мішень навколо кулі», щоб усе виглядало логічно.– Confabulation — як ми вигадуємо правдоподібні пояснення, навіть коли не розуміємо, чому щось зробили.– Confirmation Bias — чому ми шукаємо лише те, що підтверджує наші думки, і відкидаємо все інше.– Priming — як просте слово чи образ можуть змінити вашу поведінку, настрій або навіть рішення.Та багато іншого.Зворотній зв'язок та реклама: flow@kindgeek.comПідписатись на email розсилку: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://eepurl.com/iQh5ag⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://x.com/ygnatyuk_⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/gnatyuk.yuriy/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Telegram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://t.me/yuragnatyuk⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/y.gnatyuk/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Підтримати на ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/flowpodcast

Send Wilk a text with your feedback!Episode 263: How Contempt Fuels Division and What We Can Do About It – with Zachary Elwood What's truly tearing us apart isn't disagreement—it's contempt. In Episode 263 of the Derate The Hate podcast, Wilk Wilkinson is joined once again by Zachary Elwood, author of the new book How Contempt Destroys Democracy: An American Liberal's Guide to Toxic Polarization.Zach shares powerful insights into how confirmation bias, emotional thinking, and our grievance culture feed political division. Wilk and Zach dive deep into why curiosity is a critical tool for unity, how media and social platforms fuel outrage, and why focusing on local community action can help us escape the national polarization trap.

Confirmtion bias, er is nog veel meer over te vertellenJe brein is een meester in het bevestigen van wat je al denkt – vooral als het gaat om wat je niet kunt. Maar wat als je niet je gedachten bent, en je deze gedachten kunt veranderen?Daarom gaan we in deze aflevering nog even door op Confirmation Bias, over hoe we onszelf vaak vastzetten in negatieve patronen door de manier waarop we tegen onszelf praten. De overtuiging “Ik kan dit niet” heeft veel meer invloed op je leven dan je denkt. Wat als je deze negatieve overtuigingen kunt omdraaien, net zoals ik dat doe in het experiment met mijn man over Paul de Leeuw? (luister vooral podcast #113).Elke keer dat je jezelf betrapt op zelfkritiek, kun je het ombuigen naar iets positiefs. Ik vertel hoe je bewustzijn creëert over je gedachten, wat ruimte biedt om ze opnieuw te sturen – en hoe dat je brein verandert. Het mooie is: je hoeft niet alleen op theorie te vertrouwen, ik geef je concrete tips om jezelf te beïnvloeden op een manier die je echt vooruit helpt.Laat me weten hoe dit experiment met jezelf uitwerkt!

Do you know how to effectively communicate with someone in a higher position, such as your boss, a board, or anyone in a position of authority? Kevin welcomes Melody Wilding, who shares strategies and conversation frameworks to help professionals at all levels navigate complex relationships with their leaders. Melody and Kevin discuss the concept of “managing up”; not as sucking-up or people-pleasing, but to take ownership of your success by fostering productive and respectful relationships with those in charge. They also discuss the critical conversations outlined in her book and dive into three in particular: the boundaries conversation, the feedback conversation, and the styles conversation. Melody emphasizes the "triple win" philosophy, which focuses on finding solutions that benefit you, your boss, and the organization. She offers practical advice for leaders on how to facilitate managing up for their team members, such as asking, "What do you need from me?"

EP 381 - This week we talk to Alex Edmans about how you make decisions in a world full of misinformation. Alex is a Professor of Finance who has written and spoken extensively about subjects such as ESG (why those three letters don't belong together) and why cognitive, rather than demographic diversity is a better indicator of business success.He's managed to do all that without getting cancelled, because his findings and talking points are guided by objective data rather than opinion. Though we do discuss how data itself can be misleading.So if you want to know why too much diversity can be a bad thing, then dive in.*For Apple Podcast chapters, access them from the menu in the bottom right corner of your player*Spotify Video Chapters:00:00 BWB with Alex Edmans01:15 Synopsis02:07 Meet Alex - Professor of Finance03:54 Challenges in Assessing Cognitive Diversity08:08 The Role of Academics in Real-World Impact18:00 Confirmation Bias and Its Impact on Decision Making30:36 The Nuances of Diversity and Inclusion35:22 The Evolution and Challenges of ESG Reporting39:20 The Burden of Reporting40:31 The Problem with Standardised Metrics42:16 Regulation vs. Market Demand43:21 SMEs and Purpose-Driven Business44:52 The Complexity of ESG48:29 Governance: A Historical Accident01:11:40 The Importance of Financial Literacy01:13:22 Quickfire - Get to Know Alex01:17:50 Wrap Upbusinesswithoutbullshit.meWatch and subscribe to us on YouTubeFollow us:InstagramTikTokLinkedinTwitterFacebookIf you'd like to be on the show, get in contact - mail@businesswithoutbullshit.meBWB is powered by Oury Clark

Send Wilk a text with your feedback!Episode 259 – Dr. Bruce Chalmer: When Communication Isn't the Real Problem in Relationships (or in Society)What if the root of conflict in our relationships — and in our divided world — isn't a failure to communicate, but a failure to tolerate discomfort?In this episode of Derate The Hate, I sit down with couples therapist and author Dr. Bruce Chalmer to explore how anxiety, not poor communication, is often the true barrier to meaningful connection — both in marriages and across ideological divides.Bruce has worked with couples for nearly 30 years, and his book It's Not About Communication! challenges everything we think we know about relationship struggles. But what makes this conversation especially powerful is how deeply his insights apply beyond romantic partnerships — to how we engage in tough conversations with those we disagree with.In this episode, you'll discover:✅ Why communication isn't the root problem in many relationships✅ How anxiety disrupts connection and meaningful dialogue ✅ Why tolerating discomfort is essential to emotional intimacy ✅ How ideas lead to growth, but ideologies often create rigidity ✅ The impact of confirmation bias on both romantic and political conversations ✅ Why faith in others' humanity is foundational for bridging divides ✅ How the tools of couples therapy can strengthen civil discourseWe also discuss Bruce's podcast with his wife Judy, Couples Therapy in Seven Words, where they explore love, faith, and what it means to truly connect in a world that often prioritizes being right over being human.Key Takeaways:✅ Emotional connection requires vulnerability, not just technique✅ Communication “problems” are often anxiety in disguise✅ Real transformation comes from deep listening and mutual respect✅ The goal of conversation isn't to win — it's to connect✅ We must create shared space for dialogue, even amid disagreementLearn more about and connect with Dr. Bruce Chalmer by getting the full show notes at www.DerateTheHate.comWhat have you done today to make your life a better life?

Send us a textOn today's episode, forensic psychiatrist Dr. Joseph Pierre returns to the podcast to discuss his new book "False: How Mistrust, Disinformation, and Motivated Reasoning Make Us Believe Things That Aren't True." We explore how confirmation bias has been put on steroids, the democratization of influence in the online world, whether it has made us less or more informed, and whether the excessive consumption of conspiracy theories should be thought of as an addiction disorder. InstagramThe Social Chemist (@socialchemistig) • Instagram photos and videosThreadThe Social Chemist (@socialchemistig) on ThreadsDr. Joseph Pierre Twitter/WebsiteJoe Pierre, MD - psychunseen.bsky.social (@psychunseen) / X (twitter.com)Joe Pierre, MD (drjoepierre.com)Dr. Joseph Pierre's Book/Literature Review Amazon.com: False: How Mistrust, Disinformation, and Motivated Reasoning Make Us Believe Things that Aren't True: 9780197765272: Pierre MD, Joe: BooksConspiracy Theory Belief: A Sane Response to an Insane World? | Review of Philosophy and PsychologyThe Social Chemist Recommended EpisodesA Psychosocial Assessment of QAnon w/ Dr. Joseph PierreThe Weaponization of Disinformation & Its Assault on Democracy w/ Barbara McQuadeThe People Who Turn Lies into Reality w/ Renée DiRestaA Psychological Assessment of QAnon & It's Comparison to Addiction w/ Sophia MoskalenkoQAnon: A Psychiatric Assessment of a Delusion Like Belief w/ Dr. Brian HoloydaHow Susceptible are you to Misinformation? w/ Dr Rakoen MaertensA Sociological Assessment of Anti-Vaccine Attitudes and Behaviors w/ Matthew Facciani

In this 19-minute episode, I discuss how the stories we tell ourselves shape our reality and how our digital and mental algorithms reinforce our beliefs. I also dive into the power of spring cleaning—both physically and emotionally—exploring how decluttering our homes, relationships, and minds creates space for new energy and growth.Using real-life examples, I break down the science of confirmation bias, neuroplasticity, and the Reticular Activating System to show how our brains filter reality based on what we focus on.Plus, I share how to rewire your mind, curate your inputs, and shift from limiting beliefs to empowering possibilities. If you're ready to clear out what no longer serves you and create space for expansion, this episode is for you!♾ In a fast-paced world like the one we live in, time is one of our most important assets.

In this episode, 195 - Is There Something Wrong With Me?, I tackle the common narrative that there is something wrong with today's youth and young adults. I share my frustration with this perspective and explain why it can be so detrimental. The key is understanding confirmation bias - the way our brains seek to prove what we already believe to be true. When we tell someone they are broken or lacking in some way, that's all their brain will focus on. Instead, I encourage focusing on what's going right, looking towards a positive future, and lifting others up. We need to quit pointing out problems and instead empower the rising generation to see their own worth and potential. Ultimately, there is nothing wrong with you. You are a divine creation of our Heavenly Parents, and any struggles you face are part of the human experience. With the Savior's help, you can overcome anything. Let's shift the narrative and start celebrating all the amazing things young people are capable of. As always, if you found this episode helpful, I want to invite you to subscribe if you aren't already, share this episode with your friends and missionaries you know, and write a review.

Mark and I are excited to bring you another special episode with just the two of us! In this conversation, we are talking about confirmation bias. It's something we have experienced in our own relationship and we see it time and time again in the couples we coach.Confirmation bias occurs when we look for evidence that “proves” what we have already decided to believe about ourselves or others. It's a dangerous thing, because our assumptions are often incorrect. When we put on the blinders to any information that contradicts what we want to believe, we make it almost impossible to let go of flawed ideas.Confirmation bias not only affects our marriages—it can also impact our friendships, family relationships, what we believe about God, and what we think about ourselves. It's so important to identify the relationships in which we are experiencing confirmation bias and take steps to root our thoughts in reality rather than assumptions.In this episode, you'll learn about:How confirmation bias harms relationshipsWhat steps we need to take to change our perspectiveWhy it's important to take our thoughts captiveAnd more!We've experienced the damage confirmation bias can cause firsthand, and we hope this conversation helps you identify it in your own thoughts and beliefs. The first step to letting go of this bias is being aware it exists and observing how it manifests in you.Find resources mentioned and more in the show notes: jillsavage.org/confirmation-bias-238Check out our other resources: Mark and Jill's Marriage Story Marriage Coaching Marriage 2.0 Intensives Speaking Schedule Book Mark and Jill to Speak Online Courses Books Marriage Resources: Infidelity Recovery For Happy Marriages For Hurting Marriages For Marriages Where You're the Only One Wanting to Get Help Mom Resources: New/Preschool Moms Moms with Gradeschoolers Moms with Teens and Tweens Moms with Kids Who Are Launching Empty Nest...

Or: why we all hear what we want to hear, and disregard the rest. Confirmation bias is hardwired into human brains, and without it we'd never get through our day. But it doesn't half get us - and the planet - into trouble sometimes. In this episode Dave learns all about confirmation bias from the splendid Professor Adam Harris off of University College London.  Learn about how casinos make their cash, why lefties should read righty-press sometimes, why confirmation bias once caused a plane to crash into a massive volcano, and why climate deniers and activists alike could all benefit from being a bit more like a fox. These new-format episodes take a long time to record, script, and edit.

In this episode of the Memoirs of an LDS Servant Teacher Podcast, host Maurice Harker delves into the complexities of marital dynamics, focusing on how husbands may misinterpret their wives' boundaries as personal rejection. This misinterpretation often stems from confirmation bias, where individuals favor information that confirms their preexisting beliefs. Maurice discusses the challenges wives face when their genuine needs for space and self-care are perceived negatively by their spouses. He also addresses the husband's perspective, exploring the discomfort and defensiveness that arise when asked to introspect and recognize personal areas for growth. Through insightful discussion, Maurice offers guidance on fostering mutual understanding and overcoming cognitive biases to strengthen marital bonds.Want to read more about this topic? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.lifechangingservices.org/the-interdependent-symphony-of-marriage/Rather Watch Something? ⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8N8_vssS_iwCheck out the Marriage Repair Workshops: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.lifechangingservices.org/marriage-repair/⁠

In our videos, podcasts, and other things that we do, we sometimes get feedback from people that make comments that leave us wondering "how in the world did they come to that impression?" or "what podcast are they listening to?"  Or they interpret something from the podcast, newsletter or video that in reality had nothing to do with what we were even stating. People see and hear what they want to based upon their experiences, emotions and many times what they are going through.The human brain is wired to interpret information based on past experiences, emotions, and current circumstances. This phenomenon is called confirmation bias — the tendency to search for, interpret, and remember information that aligns with our existing beliefs and feelings.We often do this in our marriages as well which can cause great harm or damage, especially if there is not open communication, or our pride and ego is too high. Also, one of the reasons why this is so serious is Miscommunication is one of the top three causes of divorce, according to a study by the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers?In this episode, we discuss this important topic and solutions as well as statistics to help you combat this in you marriage.This episode sponsored by vitalhealthproductsusa.comIf you are feeling like something is off with your energy or health, check out all of the great vitamins and dietary supplements to help you improve your overall health and wellbeing.

Have you ever found yourself in a debate with someone and realised as it goes on, that the person you're talking to simply isn't going to change their mind. That might be the case even if they're expressing a controversial point of view, or saying something that goes against scientific evidence. It's often because they're so convinced their perspective is right that they can't see any nuances in the discussion. Even when you present a solid argument that challenges their views, they only focus on what supports their position and twist it into their defense. The chances are they're experiencing something known as confirmation bias. What's that? How can you avoid falling into that trap? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Your brain is wired to seek out evidence that confirms what you already believe, whether it's “I'm not good enough,” “Success isn't for me,” or “Mondays are the worst.” And guess what? It'll find proof everywhere. But here's the kicker—just because you believe it doesn't mean it's true. This week on Creating Her Best Life Now, we're diving deep into how this sneaky mental habit could be holding you back—and, more importantly, how to break free from it. If you're ready to challenge those old, limiting beliefs and start creating a reality that actually serves you, tune in! Your best life is waiting… once you stop letting your brain sabotage it.

HELLO! And welcome back to the Pass Around the Smile podcast. This year, I am so focused on bringing you episodes which will have you feeling relaxed, optimistic, inspired and READY to live life to your fullest potential. I'm so excited just writing that! In this episode I share with you the ups and downs which January brought me. My new year card spread for January was so spot on. I pulled patience and perception - and boy did I need to practice patience and change my perception on certain situations, over and over! While January was chaotic, it was full of lessons, and I'm grateful that I can now share all of this with my community. I am positive that this episode will resonate in more ways than one. Something we all struggle with from time to time is having patience, not only in regards to our dreams manifesting, but with everyday life occurrences. How we react and perceive everything that is happening around us, becomes a direct reflection of what we experience.In this ep I chat about how our inner reality directly affects our outer reality and how you can use patience and perception to alter what you are experiencing. I also touch on confirmation bias. What it is and how the majority of the world experiences it! Are you looking for evidence to support your fears or limiting beliefs? It can be such a huge block when it comes to manifestation. If confirmation bias is taking over your subconscious mind, you aren't allowing yourself freedom, peace, love, happiness or success.Something I'm also passionate about, is not ‘waiting' or ‘depending' on something external to dictate your happiness. I hear a lot of, ‘I'll be happy when …. I'll feel relaxed when …' Why not allow yourself to feel these feelings now? Because you can. They are available to you.

Do you ever feel like the evidence for your worst fears is everywhere? Whether it's comments on social media or your own inner dialogue, it can feel impossible to escape the idea that you'll never heal, your relationship is doomed, or you're simply unworthy of love. But here's the truth: what you're experiencing isn't reality, it's confirmation bias. In this episode, we're breaking down how confirmation bias works, how it keeps you stuck in cycles of fear and self-doubt, and most importantly, how to break free. You'll learn practical steps to challenge fear-driven thoughts, see situations more clearly, and replace negativity with balanced perspectives that fuel growth and healing. If you're tired of being trapped by your fears, this episode will show you how to take back control. Key Points & Takeaways: What is Confirmation Bias? A cognitive shortcut where we subconsciously favour information that supports our existing beliefs, even if those beliefs are harmful or untrue. Quote: "The eye sees only what the mind is prepared to comprehend." — Robertson Davies. The Impact of Confirmation Bias: Keeps you stuck in cycles of fear, self-doubt, and guilt. Reinforces harmful beliefs like, “I'll never recover,” or “This relationship is doomed.” Blocks opportunities for growth and healing by ignoring evidence that contradicts your fears. Breaking Free from the Fear Trap: Awareness: Notice when you're seeking out proof of your fears instead of truth. Challenge the Thought: Ask yourself, “Is there evidence against this belief?” Seek Balanced Perspectives: Surround yourself with voices and resources that encourage growth, not just validation of negativity. Big Idea: What you focus on grows. By challenging confirmation bias, you can break free from fear-driven cycles and embrace healing and personal growth. This week, challenge yourself to catch one fear-driven thought and ask: Is there evidence against this belief that I'm ignoring? What's one positive perspective I can explore instead? What would I tell a friend in my situation? Share your experience with me in the After the Affair Community on Facebook, or message me on Instagram. Let's work on breaking these patterns together.   Connect with Luke: Website: www.lifecoachluke.com Instagram: @mylifecoachluke Email: luke@lifecoachluke.com Join the After the Affair community at www.facebook.com/groups/aftertheaffaircommunity

Here in Episode 184 - This Is God's Work we talk about as missionaries, it's so easy to get caught up in the pressure to perform and meet our goals. Whether it's baptisms, finding new investigators, or any other metric, the stress and anxiety can really start to weigh us down. In this episode, I open up about some recent conversations I've had with missionaries who are feeling overwhelmed by the need to "succeed." I share my heart on why we have to reframe how we think about this work - it's not about our own efforts, it's about trusting in God's perfect plan. Our job is to invite and love, not to control the outcomes. When we can embrace that truth, it frees us up to serve with joy and confidence, instead of fear and doubt. The work may be hard, but the peace comes when we remember that salvation is ultimately in God's hands, not our own. I hope this episode encourages you to let go of the pressure, focus on what's in your control, and find the abundant joy in simply being a vessel for God's work. After all, this is His mission, not ours. As always, if you found this episode helpful, I want to invite you to subscribe if you aren't already, share this episode with your friends and missionaries you know, and write a review. I know this work will help LDS missionaries around the world and it would mean so much to me if you did.

Confirmation Bias is the tendency to seek out, interpret, and remember information that confirms what we already believe.  In other words, we pay more attention to things that back up our views, and we conveniently ignore anything that challenges them.  This bias can affect everything-from the decisions we make in our daily lives, to how we interact with people who have different perspectives.    

In this episode we welcome Dr. Sarah Stein Lubrano, a political scientist who studies how cognitive dissonance affects all sorts of political behavior. She's also the co-host of a podcast about activism called "What Do We Want?" and she wrote a book that's coming out in May of 2025 titled don't talk about politics which is about how to discuss politics without necessarily talking about politics.Sarah Stein Lubrano's WebsiteSarah Stein Lubrano's SubstackSarah Stein Lubrano's TwitterKittedHow Minds ChangeDavid McRaney's TwitterYANSS TwitterShow NotesNewsletterPatreon
