In The Age of American Unreason, Jacoby posited that it trickled down from the top, fueled by faux-populist politicians striving to make themselves sound approachable rather than smart.

  • 1 Embrace Your Cognitive Bias
    1 Embrace Your Cognitive Bias http://blog.beaufortes.com/2007/06/embrace-your-co.html Cognitive Biases are distortions in the way humans see things in comparison to the purely logical way that mathematics, economics, and yes even project management would have us look at things. The problem is not that we have them… most of them are wired deep into our brains following millions of years of evolution. The problem is that we don’t know about them, and consequently don’t take them into account when we have to make important decisions. (This area is so important that Daniel Kahneman won a Nobel Prize in 2002 for work tying non-rational decision making, and cognitive bias, to mainstream economics) People don’t behave rationally, they have emotions, they can be inspired, they have cognitive bias! Tying that into how we run projects (project leadership as a compliment to project management) can produce results you wouldn’t believe. You have to know about them to guard against them, or use them (but that’s another article)... So let’s get more specific. After the jump, let me show you a great list of cognitive biases. I’ll bet that there are at least a few that you haven’t heard of before! Decision making and behavioral biases Bandwagon effect — the tendency to do (or believe) things because many other people do (or believe) the same. Related to groupthink, herd behaviour, and manias. Bias blind spot — the tendency not to compensate for one’s own cognitive biases. Choice-supportive bias — the tendency to remember one’s choices as better than they actually were.

  • The Actor–Observer Asymmetry in Attribution: a (Surprising) Meta-Analysis
    Psychological Bulletin Copyright 2006 by the American Psychological Association 2006, Vol. 132, No. 6, 895–919 0033-2909/06/$12.00 DOI: 10.1037/0033-2909.132.6.895 The Actor–Observer Asymmetry in Attribution: A (Surprising) Meta-Analysis Bertram F. Malle University of Oregon The actor–observer hypothesis (E. E. Jones & R. E. Nisbett, 1971) states that people tend to explain their own behavior with situation causes and other people’s behavior with person causes. Widely known in psychology, this asymmetry has been described as robust, firmly established, and pervasive. However, a meta-analysis on 173 published studies revealed average effect sizes from d ϭ Ϫ0.016 to d ϭ 0.095. A moderator analysis showed that the asymmetry held only when the actor was portrayed as highly idiosyncratic, when hypothetical events were explained, when actor and observer were intimates, or when free-response explanations were coded. In addition, the asymmetry held for negative events, but a reverse asymmetry held for positive events. This valence effect may indicate a self-serving pattern in attribution, but across valence, no actor–observer asymmetry exists. Keywords: self–other, behavior explanations, social psychology, social perception, social cognition Supplemental data: http://dx.doi.org/10.1037/0033-2909.132.6.895.supp Self and other are the two chief targets of social cognition, and few metry is featured in textbooks of social psychology and general assumptions are as compelling as the one that cognition about the self psychology alike (e.g., Fiske, 2004; Franzoi, 2006; Gray, 2002; differs in important ways from cognition about others.

  • Design and Analysis of Case-Control Studies
    Design and Analysis of Case-Control Studies Kyoungmi Kim, Ph.D. Nov 9 & 16, 2016 This seminar is jointly supported by the following NIH-funded centers: We are video recording this seminar so please hold questions until the end. Thanks Seminar Objectives . Introduce basic concepts, application, and issues of case- control studies . Understand key considerations in designing a case-control study, such as confounding and matching . How to determine sample size for a prospective case- control study Case-Control Studies . Are used to retrospectively determine if there is an association between an exposure and a specific health outcome. Proceed from effect (e.g. health outcome, condition, disease) to cause (exposure). Collect data on exposure retrospectively. Are observational studies because no intervention is attempted and no attempt is made to alter the course of the disease. When is a Case-Control Study Warranted? . A case-control study is usually conducted before a cohort or an experimental study to identify the possible etiology of the disease. – It costs relatively less and can be conducted in a shorter time. For a given disease, a case-control study can investigate multiple exposures (when the real exposure is not known). A case-control study is preferred when the disease is rare because investigators can intentionally search for the cases. – A cohort study of rare disease would need to start with a large number of exposed people to get adequate number of cases at the end. Basic Case-Control Study Design A subset of the target Study population, randomly selected from the population Population Selected by inclusion and Study Non exclusion criteria Participants Participants (Present) Selection of cases and Control controls based on health Case Group outcome or disease status Group (Look back in time) Assess prior exposure status at some specified time point before Exposed Unexposed Exposed Unexposed disease onset Determine Association .

Disease or Other Health Outcome Three sources of error Exposure or Host Random error? Characteristic Is an association Is the association observed? valid/true? Bias? Disease or Other Confounding? Health Outcome What is scientific bias? • Bias is any trend or deviation from the truth in data collection, data analysis, interpretation and publication which can give rise to false conclusions. • It does not imply prejudice or deliberate deviation, but the deviation is systematic and non-random. Bias is bad news! • Error in the design or conduct of a study • Not much can be done about it once the study is over! • Studies have practical and ethical constraints so some bias is almost inevitable. Bias in three parts 1) Selection bias Concerns the people included or compared … such that selection of individuals or groups does not achieve randomisation a. Sampling bias b. Ascertainment bias c. Attrition bias (loss to follow-up) Who is selected and how are they selected? 1) Selection bias • Sampling bias • When some members of the intended population are less likely to be included than others • Results in a non-random sample 1) Selection bias • Sampling bias – pneumonia and alcoholism Pneumonia • In the community Yes No OR = De / He Dn / Hn Yes 10 10 Alcoholism No 90 90 OR = 10 / 10
