Finding ways to make abstract and often obtuse concepts understandable to students, interns, residents, and fellows is a crucial pedagogical task. Explaining these principles and practices via personal narratives may increase students' engagement with the material. Accordingly, in this personal essay, I present a personal story about a lunch date with my father that illustrates the power of the confirmation and selective attention biases as well as these concepts' clinical applicability. Several elements of the lunch a go-go narrative are used to specifically explicate teaching points about cognitive biases and their role in people's inner lives.
寻找使抽象且往往晦涩难懂的概念易于学生、实习生、住院医师和研究员理解的方法是一项至关重要的教学任务。通过个人叙述来解释这些原则和实践可能会增加学生对材料的参与度。因此，在这篇个人文章中，我讲述了一个与我父亲共进午餐的个人故事，该故事说明了确认和选择性注意偏见的力量，以及这些概念在临床中的应用。午餐故事中的几个元素被用来具体阐述认知偏见及其在人们内心生活中的作用的教学要点。
