Dr. Tyler Woods talks today about why people believe the way they do. She talks about one of the most agreed-upon ideas in the field of psychology is that people routinely use mental shortcuts to understand what happens around them. She talks about how we tend to use quick and largely unconscious rules-of-thumb to determine what we believe—and these shortcuts sometimes can steer us in the wrong direction. Woods talks about how we would like to think that our feelings are driven by logic and reason, unfortunately, often, they are not. Sometimes we end up using our reasoning ability to justify or defend a story based on our emotions. This is called emotional reasoning and we get attached to untruths.
