Happy 50th Birthday to Heuristics & Cognitive Biases! 🧠🎉 (check out the following link for proof of this https://t.co/v7548lzUfK)
To celebrate this important anniversary in science, LEP has an announcement 📖👀. See the thread 🧵 below:
To celebrate this milestone, we proudly share a unique edited volume: The Collection of Cognitive Biases & Fallacies! 📖
Over 40 scientists & 1300+ sources went into this, showcasing 28+ biases in detail. Abstracts are available in English.
So let's raise a glass to heuristics & cognitive biases 🥂! May they continue to inspire research & one day enjoy a well-deserved retirement when science fully explains them. #CognitiveBiases#Psychology@SJDMOfficial@SPUDM_Meeting @EADM_1993
Why are cognitive biases so fascinating? As the editor @DamnjanovicKaja puts it, cognitive biases offer a window into the part of our mind that acts "as if it knows", even in a complex & uncertain world.
Müller-Lyer illusion
The Müller-Lyer illusion is probably the most famous illusion. It is a size illusion that occurs when apices of V-shape fins are attached to both ends of a line segment. The line segment appears shorter when V-shapes are attached inside (left image) and longer when they are attached outside (right image). This illusion was proposed by Müller-Lyer (1889) and spawned many variants.
