Jonathan Fugelsang is a Professor at the University of Waterloo's Department of Cognitive Science. His research focuses on cognitive processes in decision-making, social and political psychology, and the intersection of metacognition with biases. His work examines how framing, language, and contextual factors influence judgments and behaviors in domains like partisan communication, gambling, and algorithmic fairness.
Key research areas include the Bias Blind Spot, bullshit detection, and the role of affective evaluations in shaping perceptions of bias. He has also explored how narcissism impacts metacognitive abilities and how interventions can mitigate cognitive biases in real-world scenarios.
His recent articles highlight themes such as polarization dynamics in political language, the environmental malleability of cognitive biases, and the application of graphical depictions to improve gambling-related judgments. Fugelsang's work bridges experimental psychology with applied contexts, addressing societal issues like misinformation and public health responses to crises.
