About this reel

In this intriguing short reel, viewers are introduced to the concept of 'anchoring,' a cognitive bias that affects decision-making every day. The narration explains how people's judgments about unrelated questions like the number of African countries can be subtly influenced by random numbers. It then shifts to practical examples in retail and negotiations, showing how initial prices or figures set an anchor point that skews perceptions of value. This reel would appeal to anyone interested in psychology, marketing, or simply understanding the subtle tricks behind everyday decision-making.
