BA 300 - Austin – Final Exam Questions And
Answers
Ethics The principles norms and standards of conduct governing an individual or group.
Cognitive Bias - Confirmation Trap When gathering facts we tend to stop looking for
information once we reached an answer that supports what we think is true or right. Think about
all the consequences, do not reduce them. Think about the consequences for yourself and for
others.
Cognitive Bias - Consequences as Risk - Illusion of Optimism People tend to overestimate
the likelihood of good future events and underestimate the bad. Ex) All newlyweds think their
love will be ever lasting when the fact is that about half of marriages end in divorce. Or Banks
before the market crash.
Cognitive Bias - Consequences as Risk - Illusion of Control People generally believe that
they are less susceptible to risk than others. They believe that they have everything under control,
and therefore may ignore risks which leads to ignoring the consequences of those risks.
