New ADT: How We Fool Ourselves
This week’s “Arming the Donkeys” podcast is in How We Fool Ourselves
Several recent studies show that we not only deceive others to further our own ends, we also deceive ourselves about our dishonesty. This week i talk with Zoe Chance of the Yale School of Management about our research into the psychological harm of self-deception and the means by which we can decrease our self-deception in the future.
The podcast is posted on Duke’s iTunes U site. Here’s the link:

The Honest Truth About Dishonesty: How We Lie to Everyone - Especially Ourselves

I came here from twitter, thinking it would perhaps link to your WSJ column, which I imagined parsing as “Ask Dan Things” (ADT)
But since it’s your podcast, you’re over-targeting dyslexics. Or, you’ll need to rename it Arming Donkeys The
As a clinical professional working with neurodevelopmental disorder across the lifespan, applied Behavioral Economics forms a third of any nostrum’s conceptual foundation. Top-down agency neurology and a scientifically reasoned genetic pathway for the disorder’s evolutionary emergence is the third foundational concept.
With each disorder, comes a unique signature in self-deception, or Illusionary Bias. They key for any Executive Agent, is their autonomic self-awareness their bias takes, with atypical cognition already being well defined. We all have “blind spots,” both literally and metaphorically speaking and if we are to self-monitory probabilistic errors in our behavioral decision-making as Kahneman suggest in “Thinking: Fast & Slow,” then know are conceptual blind spot is critical for minimizing our self-deceptive choices.
Ironically, if one has a DSM disorder, and has a psycho-educational framework for their bias for, than if fact, they could have a better grasp of Illusionary Basis, having an Evidence-Based understanding of the pattern in their mistakes. A long shot factor needing to be teased out as an expected “Rational Irrationality.”
Reblogged this on Te Mo 143.
Is it possible that human behavior and the predictably irrational decisions that humans make be explained by quantum cognition?
I’m impressed, I have to admit. Rarely do I come across a blog that’s equally educative and engaging, and let me tell you, you’ve hit the nail on the head. The problem is an issue that too few folks are speaking intelligently about. Now i’m very happy I stumbled across this in my search for something relating to this.

I quite agree with you dan not because it was april fools today but things happen due to some reasons that we let others decide what’s good for us.
Nobody is perfect but everyone has a reason why things ended up in bad ways.
