6. Understand biases in others

• Accurately perceive and analyse the context within which a decision is being made
• Distinguish the potential bias(es)
• Make appropriate adjustments

Adjust the decisions of others by:

• Selecting a comparison group
• Assess the distribution of the comparison group (additional data needed?)
• Incorporate intuitive estimation: ask an expert
• Assess the predicted results of the decision
•  Adjust the intuitive estimate: adjusted estimate = group mean +correlation (initial estimate-group mean)
