Cognitive Bias Codex

The Cognitive Bias Codex is a visual chart that organizes various mental shortcuts and errors our brains make when thinking, perceiving, or deciding. These biases influence our judgments in ways we may not realize, often leading to flawed conclusions. The codex groups these biases into categories based on common themes, helping us understand why we sometimes misinterpret information or make irrational choices. Recognizing these biases can improve decision-making by making us more aware of our mental pitfalls and encouraging more objective, rational thinking.
