The [[ladder of inference]] is a "model that describes how people move from observable facts to their own conclusions and actions, often [[Unconscious mind|unconscious]]ly. It represents a series of mental steps: starting with selecting some data, then adding meaning and assumptions, drawing conclusions, and finally taking action based on those [[belief]]s. Understanding this process allows for reflection and can help in avoiding [[cognitive bias]]es and making more [[Rationality|reasoned]] [[Decision making|decisions]].<ref>[https://www.google.com/search?q=what+is+the+ladder+of+inference&sca_esv=be5f5ad743b3614b&sxsrf=AE3TifO5erEGfisTfW7adZ_HS_McMRMqFw%3A1760586116947&ei=hGnwaKzHOcSIptQPktyq2Ag&ved=0ahUKEwismeOw5qeQAxVEhIkEHRKuCosQ4dUDCBA&uact=5&oq=what+is+the+ladder+of+inference&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LXNlcnAiH3doYXQgaXMgdGhlIGxhZGRlciBvZiBpbmZlcmVuY2UyCxAAGIAEGJECGIoFMgYQABgHGB4yCxAAGIAEGJECGIoFMgYQABgHGB4yBhAAGAcYHjIGEAAYBxgeMgQQABgeMgYQABgIGB4yBhAAGAgYHjILEAAYgAQYhgMYigVIuDhQ2iJY8TFwA3gBkAEBmAHxAaAB7wuqAQYwLjExLjG4AQPIAQD4AQGYAgmgAuoFwgIHECMYsAMYJ8ICChAAGLADGNYEGEfCAg0QABiABBiwAxhDGIoFwgIOEAAYsAMY5AIY1gTYAQHCAhMQLhiABBiwAxhDGMgDGIoF2AEBwgIHECMYsAIYJ8ICBxAAGIAEGA3CAggQABgHGAoYHsICBRAAGIAEwgIIEAAYBxgIGB6YAwCIBgGQBhO6BgYIARABGAmSBwMzLjagB7N4sgcDMC42uAfJBcIHBTItOC4xyAc0&sclient=gws-wiz-serp What is the ladder of inference?]</ref>

The ladder of inference "increases self-awareness by making people conscious of their own thought processes, allowing them to examine their assumptions and biases before acting. By intentionally moving down the ladder, you can trace your conclusions back to the raw data, leading to more intentional and less reflexive decisions and a deeper understanding of how you arrive at your beliefs."<ref>[https://www.google.com/search?q=How+can+the+ladder+of+inference+increase+self-awareness%3F&sca_esv=be5f5ad743b3614b&sxsrf=AE3TifOtxEuwIvVxA-EeRsyqaX30irFb7g%3A1760586135789&ei=l2nwaL_7L_GU5OMP8YbRsQY&ved=0ahUKEwj_ouG55qeQAxVxCnkGHXFDNGYQ4dUDCBA&uact=5&oq=How+can+the+ladder+of+inference+increase+self-awareness%3F&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LXNlcnAiOEhvdyBjYW4gdGhlIGxhZGRlciBvZiBpbmZlcmVuY2UgaW5jcmVhc2Ugc2VsZi1hd2FyZW5lc3M_MgUQIRigATIFECEYoAEyBRAhGKABMgUQIRigATIFECEYqwJI5-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-5owgcHMi41MS44NMgHogM&sclient=gws-wiz-serp How can the ladder of inference increase self-awareness?]</ref>
