Is Success Luck or Hard Work?
During the unprecedented era of the COVID-19 lockdowns, a headline swiftly gained momentum across various platforms: "Nearly half of men say they do most of the homeschooling... ...three percent of women agree." This headline isn't raised here to spark a debate on who shoulders the most responsibility, but rather serves as a vivid illustration of a psychological phenomenon known as egocentric bias. This cognitive bias, prevalent among most individuals, manifests in the tendency to overestimate one's own contributions while underestimating the contributions of others. This tendency is pervasive, permeating various aspects of human behavior and perception.

Overcoming failure
In a groundbreaking 2019 research endeavor, a cohort exceeding 400 participants embarked on a journey to unravel the intricacies of a cryptic, fabricated language. Entrants were tasked with deciphering three sets of enigmatic symbols, each pair posing a distinct query such as discerning the representation of animate entities versus inanimate objects. Subsequently, following a brief intermission, participants encountered the same rune pairs, albeit with questions reversed—challenged to distinguish between living and non-living entities. However, unbeknownst to the players, a clandestine mechanism governed the proceedings: the responses furnished during the initial phase dictated the attributions of the symbols in the ensuing round. In the initial phase, participants were either bestowed with unerring validation irrespective of their responses or compelled to confront unrelenting failure. Consequently, at the juncture of the interlude, every contender found themselves on an equal footing, with identical reservoirs of knowledge to draw upon in the subsequent round. Yet, despite this ostensibly level playing field, the victors of the preliminary phase ascended to the summit of proficiency, while those consigned to failure found themselves mired in a perpetual cycle of inadequacy.

How to make smart decisions
In a seminal 2011 study, researchers delved into the intricate dynamics of parole decisions by meticulously tracking a cohort of judges. These judicial arbiters were tasked with the weighty responsibility of determining whether incarcerated individuals deserved a shot at parole. While one might intuitively assume that factors such as the severity of the crime, the duration of the sentence, and the conduct of the prisoner would overwhelmingly dictate the outcome, the researchers unearthed a startling revelation: the timing of the parole hearing wielded an outsized influence on the judges' rulings. Astonishingly, inmates who appeared before the parole board in the morning were significantly more likely to be granted parole compared to their counterparts who underwent review in the afternoon, even when their criminal offenses and sentences mirrored each other in substance and gravity.
