Thank you for this. I hope more people discover this channel.
Thank you so much for dropping by and the kind words!
your best video yet👍🏼
This was very informative. Thank you vro

You got 1/3 chance to pic right first time. So you must be an idiot not to pic the one with 2/3 chance you have now.
You are so good at explaining
Australia should win more Nobel Prizes.
Disagree. If they lose a war to big birds; how can they expect to win a nobel prize??
Great video! If you keep making them like this I think your channel will blow up
Really appreciate the nice words !!
Exactly the opposite, more drowning causes Nicholas Cage to make more movies, that's what gives him his acting powers.

Dude! love these kind of video's man, hope you keep it up
Thank you so much!! More to come for sure
Another good vid. amazing how people are apparently making their decisions rationally, but when we closely inspect it we realize, how biased and illogical we often are. People are more attached when it comes to things they own. Like they rather miss out on gaining 150 dollars than to risk 100 dollars of their own, was kinda explained in the video. I believe it has some evolutionary basis, because long time ago taking a risk would potentially mean death so people rathered to 'play it safe'. There was also some study about assessing the price of a cup, one time people were in the possession of the cup, and the other time they had to buy it. They valued THEIR cup like 2-3x more worth than when they had to buy it, even though it was the same cup.
Thank you for the nice comment! And yes the endowment effect is really really powerful..
man i love this i enjoyed learning these concepts
Thank you so much! I hope your enjoy my future videos also :)
keep it up
Thank you !
good vid, food for thought
Thanks!
Gradually finding out that the human experience is not so built on rationality as advertised for a millenia, is personally unsettling and eeks strong feelings of nilhism. Well, at the very least what is clear is that being human is very confusing and shite.
That's exactly how I felt when I started my psychology-journey. But another more positive perspective is that this irrationality, that is embedded in the human psyche, actually makes life pretty tolerable. If we were constantly analyze the situation and think about the most rational option, there might not be a lot of room for happiness, and if we constantly feel bad about being irrational (which our irrationality prevents us from doing), it would be pretty damning for our mental health.
I personally turned on the captions because i had trouble understanding. I understand you have an accent and that is fine, but perhaps look up some diction exercises to do first. Like "red leather, yellow leather, purple leather"
booooo
Thank you for the feedback! Will look into it
Not loud enough.
Thanks for the feedback. I will look to turn up the audio for the future!
I really liked your video! I’m thinking that the way we evaluate our spending actually COULD be rational though if we think in terms of marginal benefits. (Like when the wine breaks, it costs you the original price PLUS the trama of losing the wine, the time it took to acquire it, etc). Therefore this would increase our cost way past the perceived benefit (drinking the wine) that we hoped to achieve. And I think we perceive the wine to cost nothing when we consume it because we “break even.” Our marginal cost = our marginal benefit of consuming the wine. Just a thought!
Thanks for the sub and the great comment! I really liked your thought about the perceived cost of your own labor. It could definitely be key factor in our way of thinking loss and gain. Sadly Shafir and Thaler didn't touch upon this topic, but would be extremely interesting to look into this.
I love how the act of investing now in a bottle of wine is truly an investment, but what it yields in future is the happiness of drinking the wine without having to think about the money we spent; of course, if the bottle breaks, we regret that our investment was unfruitful. We're a bunch of dumb alcoholic monkeys.
alcohol makes us all happy
Many people prefer cannabis. Also, like half the world don't drink because of religious reasons

Sounds like avoidance. Also the responsibility part sounds like a bureaucratic excuse, it's "beneficial" like being a murderer is beneficial. This is sociopathic behavior not business psychology
I would argue that this is an integral part of microorganizational litterature and therefore an integral part of how people act in businesses. Take Bearings Bank that also plead ignorance to Nick Leesons fraudulent activities to make profit. It’s a very common thing to do and not necessarily an indication that someone is a sociopath.
@@businesspsychologycb In the example you use, Sanofi ignore red flags in order to generate profit. Reporting them would not have landed the company in trouble. The product killed people but it is considered a good case because Sanofi managed to make a profit out of it. Moreover if the product was not dangerous, they would have continued to make profit. So this only benefits you when the product is in fact dangerous, rationalizing inflicting human sufferings for profit/upwards mobility as a good thing. The fact that is it integral only highlights the implicit complicity of all involved and that the literature has become itself corrupted. I would also like to point out that by ignoring red flags, they are encouraging the faking of the data to begin with, as favorable results will get you more customers. So it's not just corrupt, it's self sustaining and defeats the purpose of the tests. The regulations are not there for the companies to overcome, but to follow
@@zombieGI I definitely see your point. The way I see it, is that strategic ignorance is not inherently bad or good, depends on what you use it for. As another person commented he ignores knowledge about bad things happening in his city, because he wants to savor his mental health. In the Sanofi example it was used extremely maliciously, and McGoey (the person who wrote the article) describes how they used strategic ignorance to deflect accountability for their immoral act - she nor I aren't condoning the behaviour, it's a decription of their particular behaviour. I wouldn't say that the litterature has necessarily been corrupted by merely pointing out what Sanofi did.
@@businesspsychologycb If this is the case can you point me out to a morally good case of strategic ignorance. I see the opposite in practice all the time. Sales experts describing the deliberate psychological manipulation of minors to gaming execs (and the preamble i am not gonna talk about the moral implications) is another good example. The preamble itself is another demonstration of strategic ignorance. One is strategic ignorance, the other is just ignorance or coping with things you cannot affect another difference between the examples).
@@businesspsychologycb Another example would be bankers ignoring toxic assets. They made a law to ban it and now its back in a different form because they didn't ban strategic ignorance, and i would say it's hard to justify plausible deniability when you have literature that lays out your intent
Damn that’s why i am so jai😮

I'm really glad this video showed up in my feed. I didn't know there was a term for what I do when I purposely avoid watching, reading, or hearing the daily news. I live near Philadelphia, PA, and the news always has stories of people (or children!) getting killed, shot, abused, or robbed. And other anxiety-producing stories. I just do not want to hear about it. It does not affect my world or my work or my loved ones. So I feel it is better to simply avoid it all. I believe this practice of Strategic Ignorance has helped keep my mind free of awful thoughts and terrible information. Maybe it's wrong, but it's just better for my mental health. Thanks for making this video. It was really well-produced and the writing was superb.
Thanks for this great comment! Just as many other things, strategic ignorance is not inherently wrong. It definitely saves the brain from some cognitive overload. As humans we can’t consider everything happening in our vaste world.
Great video! Subscribed.
Thanks a lot!
I disagree with the moral wiggle room example, if you know that there's a potential harm that you can avoid by actually bothering to check and deliberately avoid doing it for the wiggle room because you can benefit from it then you are absolutely at fault when the harm actually happens.
Yes! I completely agree with you. From a third-party-perspective the person would typically still be at fault, but the moral wiggle room, as described here, is self-imposed from that person to the person. That means that this is merely a description of how people usually avoid that piece of knowledge that would condemn them as a “bad person”. In a situation with uncertainty about the whether a person has herpes, that person typically would feel better continuing that questionable moral behaviour rather than in a situation where he knows 100% that he has herpes. So he is creating a moral wiggle room for himself, to justify his own behaviour
