1/ Tangibility Bias :: Our tendency to give more weight to things proportionally to their tangibility.
2/ For example, in the context of competitions:
physical size > IQ > propensity to work hard
For the likelihood of being found in the statement: “there only good because of [X trait]”
physical size > IQ > propensity to work hard
For the likelihood of being found in the statement: “there only good because of [X trait]”
3/ Tangibility Bias can also be found in our tendency to favor quantity over quality. The latter being the far less tangible metric.
