Over millions of years of evolution you'd think your brain would have gotten pretty good at thinking. But the truth is natural selection hasn't been nudging our brains to be ever more rational. It's been nudging them to keep us alive. Those aren't always the same thing.

If our brains were bad at spotting predators, running away from danger, and evaluating possible friends and enemies quickly, the human race would have died out long ago. The trouble is, avoiding hungry lions is no longer the main task we use our brains for. These days we expect them to make rational decisions.

Turns out that's one thing they're not so well equipped to do. According to an incredibly fascinating body of social science (made most famous by the work of Nobel prize-winning psychologist Daniel Kahnemann ) our minds are riddled with a host of cognitive biases that help us act quickly in the face of danger but make accurately weighing evidence, assessing probabilities, and deciding logically often pretty difficult.

Forewarned is forearmed, and knowing about these biases can help you recognize and correct for them. But if you don't have time to read excellent but in-depth books on the subject, here's a quick cheat sheet of some of the most common errors to watch out for.

1. Confirmation bias

I'm not sure how this one evolved, but I'm absolutely certain I've seen it in action. Humans don't like to change their opinions. Rethinking our beliefs once they've formed is hard and uncomfortable. It's much easier to simply ignore information that calls our most cherished ideas into question than it is to engage with threatening new information. So, often, that's just what we do. It's called the confirmation bias.

2. Availability heuristic

Our brain has a simple shortcut for estimating probability -- how easy is it to recall something similar? But there's at least one huge problem with this approach. Big, terrifying events are easier to recall than run-of-the-mill ones. That's why so many people are afraid of plane crashes, child abductions, and terrorism, which in reality are extremely rare, and blasé about car accidents, which kill more than 30,000 Americans a year. (Alarmist news broadcasts don't much help us get an accurate sense of events' actual frequency either.)

3. Anchoring

This one is beloved by business people setting prices, but beware anchoring if you're a consumer. The term refers to our tendency to stubbornly cling to a number once we hear it and evaluate all other offers based on that previous number, even if that isn't the most relevant bit of information. So tell people they are limited to 'four per customer' and they'll be much more likely to buy four of whatever you're selling, even though they were originally only intending to buy two and really don't need double that.

4. Halo effect

Human brains are lazy and like consistency, that includes ideas that are consistent about a particular person or entity. Internal contradictions take up a lot of metal resources. That's why, when someone makes a positive impression with their small talk and self presentation in the first minutes of a job interview, you're more likely to view their professional accomplishments as similarly positive later. Your good first impression throws a hazy halo of positivity over all subsequent information.

5. Sunk cost fallacy

The everyday expression for this bias is 'throwing good money after bad.' The idea is that once we've invested time and/or money in something, we become vastly less likely to abandon it, even once it should be clear that the project will ultimately fail. The result is we frequently end up losing far more than if we had taken the hard decision to cut our losses early.

6. Survivorship bias

Success stories are easy to spot. Failures that sunk quietly into non-existence much less so. That's why we commonly over-estimate the likelihood of success in risky ventures. Just ask any startup veteran who has been disabused of his starry-eyed optimism over several years in the industry if you don't believe me.

This is also why we often put too much stock in the strategies of particular successful people -- like dropping out of school. We remember the Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerbergs of the world and forget to factor in the vast numbers of quietly struggling dropouts when we mentally calculate how likely an action (ditching school) is to lead to an outcome (striking it rich as an entrepreneur).

This only a small sample of the massive list of biases that afflict the human brain, so if you want to learn more, check out an exhaustive resource on the subject from Slack's Buster Benton, or a less lengthy but still very useful guide from James Clear.

First article:

Mass media affect a large audience with different age groups.

No one is perfect and everyone has their own beauty.

should appreciate the inner beauty instead of concentrating on appearances.

# data[].attributes.body
The article clearly shows the level of influence on communication methods in particular and society in general. Through specific figures and clear examples, the article has not clearly shown the benefits that social media can bring and at the same time, there are still unwanted harms. The idea of shaping people into stereotypes by the media is from a negative perspective. Instead, on the other hand, those standards can create motivation for people to grow more and more physically and in many other ways.

# data[].attributes.body
- The article is presented in a systematic manner and the information for each major section is provided clearly.
- The article provided very clear and specific information about various aspects of mass media.
- Most of this information is referenced from previous articles and researches. The article is not really expressed by the author's own arguments.(the authors did not reveal their unique argument)
- Most of the arguments of the article are directed towards the negative side of using mass media while the positive points are barely mentioned.

# data[].attributes.body
2nd art:

The author said the growth of mass media has both beneficial and detrimental effects on community engagement.

Samsudin said that parents are not inclined to set rules about this which can directly affects the lifestyle and awareness formation of young people.

TikTok user @palestine_eye_of_tiger2's videos spread misinformation about the COVID vaccine. They featured clips of people appearing to have seizures and describing their symptoms as an adverse effect of the injection. The videos were seen 1.2 million times before VICE World News noticed them. The @palestine_eye_of_tiger2 account tricked TikTok's AI into thinking it wasn't doing anything wrong. Since August 17th, the account posted around 60 videos about vaccines and accumulated over 3 million views. Analysts think their success was down to sheer critical mass of content, and camouflage. @palestine_eye_of_tiger2 has been able to get three times as many followers as Politifact on TikTok. TikTok recently removed over 30,000 videos for promoting COVID-19 misinformation. But it's not clear many others are managing to slip through the gaps.

# data[].attributes.body
All the apps in the world are turning their backs on misinformation. TikTok is becoming “a space to post background videos, produced and elsewhere without significant context, but despite being framed by conspiracy theorists and the community as a solid piece of evidence.” alarm about the supposed adverse reactions and all the server to encourage fear of the viewers. Currently spreading on TikTok false information about the covid 19 vaccines. However, the videos are just cut from other articles. Although it is false information, Tiktok's filtering system cannot find it, the reason is that the content of the video makes the system believe that it is correct information. Tiktok is trying its best to fix the system, as well as prevent misinformation.

# data[].attributes.body
A video that related to the story of the woman her negative reaction to the Covid vaccine such as seizure symptoms, was swiftly viral on TikTok. There is no relevance between the title and the adverse content of these videos. Although there was also no information about this owner, the number of viewers was dramatically increasing on the Tiktok platform.  Every video used the same motif, the on-screen phrase "safe and effective," which contrasted with the video content. The account looked to be attempting to hide its videos from moderation. TikTok has attempted to combat disinformation on its platform; it collaborates with third-party fact-checking organizations, and its in-app coronavirus knowledge portal has received billions of views. In addition,TikTok is also not putting a halt to new users. According to evidence, violating the terms of community violence on TikTok and spreading false information about covid-19 will be banned from use and views will be reduced to 0. It was announced that TikTok has removed 30000 videos of disinformation about covid-19 and mid-2021 and TikTok has limited the misinformation posted.

The article suggests that:
1. Certain social media sites are vulnerable to manipulation due to their algorithm security not being fit for purpose.

2. Misinformation can be spreed to millions of people rapidly, which can have negative impacts for society (e.g. vaccine hesitancy may cause higher death rates in confused populations)
