Don't Believe Everything You Think!: Confirmation Bias and Its Role in Distorting Reality

Dr. Paola Lake discusses cognitive biases and in particular, confirmation bias, defined as "a tendency to search for, interpret, focus on and remember information in a way that confirms one's preconceptions."  She discusses how confirmation bias can influence our everyday lives, our mental health, and our overall perception of reality.  She provides some ideas about limiting confirmation bias, especially when it is having a negative impact on our lives.
