Decision making is often a biased and flawed process. This activity is important because a person who can identify and be aware of their biases may be able to make better decisions for themselves and may be able to diagnose flawed decisions that affect their workplace. The goal of this exercise is to test your knowledge of the nine fundamental decision-making biases given below.

a. Availability Bias
b. Representativeness Bias
c. Sunk-Cost Bias
d. Anchoring and Adjustment Bias
e. Confirmation Bias
f. Overconfidence Bias
g. Hindsight Bias
h. Framing Bias
i. Escalation of Commitment Bias

Answer:

a. Availability bias ⇒ Cori

This bias refers to the mind's tendency to evaluate a topic based on the examples that they already know of and therefore come to their mind first. Cori thought of her weather at home first and related it to Australia.

b. Representativeness Bias ⇒ Trinity

This bias is one that people make when things are related. They assume that if it is the case for an event, related events should work the same as well.

c. Sunk-cost bias ⇒ Zion

This bias refers to the making of decisions based on sunk costs. Zion's transmission is a sunk cost but he used it as a basis to fix the brakes.

d. Anchoring and Adjustment bias ⇒ Nishka

This bias occurs when we look upon new information with a biased view as Nishka did when they looked at the prices of cheaper cars.

e. Confirmation bias ⇒ Declan

Confirmation bias is when we only listen to information that supports our view much like Declan here who disregarded information that criticized his car model.

f. Overconfidence bias ⇒ Milo

This bias results from having unfounded confidence in our ability to do something much like Milo here who believed he was good enough to invest as his broker who had to go through more intensive training.

g. Hindsight bias ⇒ Sai

Believing that we always knew something was going to happen after the thing happens.

h. Framing bias ⇒ Rosa

This bias occurs when decisions are made based on one aspect due to the decision being framed from that aspect.

i. Escalation of Commitment Bias ⇒ Amara

This bias occurs when we continue to follow a decision path even though that decision has proven to provide negative consequences.
