Topic: Cognitive Bias

How does cognitive bias affect our behavior in ways that are harmful to us, to society, to humanity? How much is nature and how much is nurture? Given what is happening in our country these days, and also around the world, does helping to understand cognitive bias give us more effective tools to proactively deal with important issues that we face? How/is this different from implicit bias? This is yet another great topic that I'm sure will spark a lively discussion.

If anybody can get there early, by around 8:45, I will need help setting up tables and chairs. I'm not supposed to lift anything heavy right now. Much appreciated.

If you are interested, a group of us like to go out to lunch afterward. We will wrap up the meeting around noon so you just might be hungry by then.

Hosted by Richard Dewey the first Saturday of each month.
