Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. Are you tired of being blindsided by your own certainty? Do you find yourself constantly surprised when projects take longer than expected, investments go south, or your predictions fail? You are not alone. Overconfidence bias is the hidden force that makes you think you are right even when you are not. It affects every decision you make, from financial planning and career moves to everyday judgments about time, risk, and your own abilities. In "Overconfidence Bias: Why You Think You Are Right (Even When You Are Not)", E. J. Kilner delivers a practical, research driven guide to understanding and overcoming the most dangerous cognitive bias you have never heard of. This book is part of The Cognitive Bias Codex series, a multi volume project that translates cutting edge behavioral psychology into actionable self improvement tools for general readers. You will learn the three faces of overconfidence: overestimation of your skills, overplacement of yourself against others, and overprecision in your predictions. You will discover why the planning fallacy causes you to chronically underestimate time and cost, why the Dunning Kruger effect means the least competent people are the most confident, and why feedback often fails to teach you anything at all. Using real world examples from investing, leadership, medicine, and everyday life, Kilner shows how overconfidence creates blind spots, inflates risk taking, and leads to preventable failure. But this book is not just about identifying the problem. It is about solving it. You will learn calibration techniques used by professional forecasters and decision analysts. You will discover how to keep a decision journal, run a premortem on your own plans, and actively seek disconfirmation of your most cherished beliefs. You will learn to replace the feeling of certainty with the accuracy of probability based thinking. Whether you are an investor, a manager, a student, or simply someone who wants to make better decisions, this book will change how you think about thinking. Stop being surprised by your own overconfidence. Learn to match your confidence to your accuracy. Read "Overconfidence Bias" and start making decisions based on what you actually know, not what you merely feel. This item is printed on demand.
