Biais cognitifs et stéréotypes : Exploration des mécanismes de la pensée

Cognitive biases and stereotype : Exploration of the mechanisms of thought

Abstract

Judgment errors are common to all human beings, they consist of generating stereotypes .The
latter can be considered the prototype of cognitive bias. They are often based on limited or inaccurate
information, and they can lead to bias and discrimination. There are many examples of how cognitive
biases and stereotypes can interact. Thus, a person who has a cognitive bias toward people of their own
race may also be more likely to believe negative stereotypes about individuals of other races.
