What is the confirmation bias?

◦ the tendency to agree with arguments that are presented with a positive emotional valence
◦ the belief that present evidence supports previous evidence even if they are completely unrelated
◦ the tendency to seek only information that is likely to support one's decisions and beliefs
◦ the belief that the odds of a chance event increase if the event hasn't occurred recently
