Confirmation Bias
The original error.
1-hour interactive presentation. 3 scaffolding lessons teach how cognitive bias influences research. Participants learn how masking can work to address bias, and some issues that arise when attempting to mask an experiment. Spice up a lab meeting, teach a class, run a skill-building session for your team.
3-hour interactive presentation. 8 scaffolding lessons teach how confirmation bias affects every step of the research process. Participants learn strategies for addressing bias in hypothesis formation, experimental design, and data analysis. Teach one week of class, or run an intensive workshop.
