The Halo Effect is a cognitive bias where individuals perceive someone or something positively in one aspect, and this positive perception influences their judgments or evaluations of other unrelated attributes or qualities. In essence, the Halo Effect occurs when a single positive trait or characteristic creates a favorable overall impression, leading individuals to overlook or downplay other aspects that may not be as positive.

One good trait casts a golden glow on everything else. Don't let the Halo Effect blind your judgment. 🌟👀 #HaloEffect #CognitiveBias #Perception #MentalModels #Awareness
