Confirmation bias is a tendency for people to favor information that confirms their preconceptions, independently of whether they are true |
|
|
As a result, people gather new evidence and recall information from memory selectively, and interpret it in a biased way |
|
|
The biases appear in particular for emotionally significant issues and for established beliefs |
