Most people don’t know they have all these cognitive biases. Telling them that they do is a good first step toward improvement (at least in some).
Huh, I thought there was a fair bit of evidence around showing that people perform basically just as badly on tests which exploit cognitive biases after being told about them as they do in a state of ignorance.
Indeed. That’s why it is just “a first step”. Telling them is not enough, but you’ve got to start there.
