Reflective Practice: How the World Bank Explored Its Own Biases?
While many international organisations have independent evaluations, including the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Health organization (WHO), uniquely the World Bank in its 2015 World Development Report sought to ascertain the potential biases that influence how its staff interpret evidence and influence policy. Here, we describe the World Bank’s study design, including experiments ...
متن کاملIntrinsic frequency biases and profiles across human cortex.
Recent findings in monkeys suggest that intrinsic periodic spiking activity in selective cortical areas occurs at timescales that follow a sensory or lower order-to-higher order processing hierarchy (Murray JD, Bernacchia A, Freedman DJ, Romo R, Wallis JD, Cai X, Padoa-Schioppa C, Pasternak T, Seo H, Lee D, Wang XJ. Nat Neurosci 17: 1661-1663, 2014). It has not yet been fully explored if a simi...
متن کاملSound-meaning association biases evidenced across thousands of languages.
It is widely assumed that one of the fundamental properties of spoken language is the arbitrary relation between sound and meaning. Some exceptions in the form of nonarbitrary associations have been documented in linguistics, cognitive science, and anthropology, but these studies only involved small subsets of the 6,000+ languages spoken in the world today. By analyzing word lists covering near...
متن کاملDo Behavioral Biases Vary across Individuals ? : Evidence from Individual Level
This paper investigates whether certain individuals are prone to behavioral biases in their 401(k) investments. Using demographic data and allocation information for over 73,000 employees, the biases examined include two “allocation biases” and a “participation bias.” The findings suggest that higher salaried employees tend to make significantly better choices. Participants earning $100,000 hol...
متن کاملTarget selection biases from recent experience transfer across effectors.
Target selection is often biased by an observer's recent experiences. However, not much is known about whether these selection biases influence behavior across different effectors. For example, does looking at a red object make it easier to subsequently reach towards another red object? In the current study, we asked observers to find the uniquely colored target object on each trial. Randomly i...
