Psychologist Daniel Kahneman nailed it when he observed it was incredibly difficult for us to see our own biases. Life is a paradoxical waltz with times of chaos and control, structure and formlessness, spontaneity and deliberation. How could I have been so unseeing? Fortunately, a bit of research rescued me from my blindness.

When Daniel Kahneman proposed Systems 1 and 2 thinking, it was generally System 2 that took most of the plaudits. While the instinctive decision-making possible with System 1 thinking has its place, when we want to make serious decisions, System 2 is what we should rely on as it affords us rational and deliberate thought processes.

This idea of prospect theory, developed by Tversky and Kahneman and reported in a classic 1979 article (for which the Nobel prize was awarded) demonstrated that individuals do not make decisions rationally by selecting options with the highest expected value, because they are risk-averse and 'losses loom larger than gains.'.

In a recent HBR article , Daniel Kahneman, Dan Lovallo, and Olivier Sibony outline the questions that a decision-maker needs to ask before making a strategic bet. These biases arise from what Kahneman and his long-time research partner Amos Tversky call framing. But such case studies are not a scientific justification.

The term ‘cognitive bias’ was coined by Amos Tversky and Daniel Kahneman in 1972 which quite simply means “our tendency to filter information, process facts and arrive at judgments based on our past experiences, likes/dislikes and automatic influences.”.
