Snap Judgements

Exaggerated emotional coherence suggests our minds have tendency to oversimplify things without sufficient information often leading to judgement errors. This is known as exaggerated emotional coherence or halo effect, because you liked one aspect of someone, you assume you will like the rest of the aspect of that same person this positive feeling about person X causes you to place a halo on them.

The tendency of individuals to agree with information that supports their previously held belief is know as the confirmation bias.

Halo effect and confirmation bias occur because our mind is eager to make quick Judgements even when lacking enough data thus leading to mistake.

Halo effect, confirmation bias like priming are phenomena happening without our conscious awareness and thus affecting our choices, actions and judgments
