Anchoring Effect
The anchoring effect is a psychological bias where people rely too heavily on the first piece of information they encounter—called the anchor—when making decisions. This can happen even if the anchor is unrelated or not entirely accurate. Once the anchor is introduced, it influences how people interpret and evaluate other information. For example, in conversations, the first suggestion or idea often frames the discussion and affects the final outcome. The anchoring effect can shape perceptions in areas like decision-making, problem-solving, and negotiations.
