What are vulnerable to multiple cognitive biases?

People who make choices or decisions are vulnerable to multiple cognitive biases.

Imagine you're picking your favorite snack from a big bowl full of different treats, cookies, candies, and chips. You want the best one, but sometimes you pick based on how they look or what you remember instead of trying them all. That’s like being tricked by cognitive biases.

Sometimes people believe things that aren’t really true because their brain takes shortcuts, those are biases. Like when your friend says, "This is the best game ever!" and suddenly you think it's amazing too, even if it’s not. That’s called a social bias, like being influenced by others.

Or maybe you think something is better just because it came first, even though other options are just as good, that’s called anchoring.

When people make decisions every day, like what to eat, who to be friends with, or what to believe, they can get tricked by more than one bias at the same time. That makes their choices even more confusing, just like when you’re trying to pick your favorite snack but there are too many options and your brain gets mixed up!
