Please research confirmation bias on the internet — and then, please describe an example that happened lately when you caught yourself falling into confirmation bias but after all ended up correcting yourself. Please do not forget: lying, cheating, consciously twisting the facts or torturing reasoning are NOT confirmation bias (they are just not the best behavior); however, strongly and often passionately believing that we are correct when all the evidence contradicting it is in front of our nose is the consequence of confirmation bias. 

APA style, 300 words, at least 2 references from within the last 5 years
