Self-awareness is to minimize bias.

• A. Increase bias
• B. Minimize bias
• C. Eliminate all feelings
• D. Improve memory

Answer: (B)

Self-awareness involves recognizing your own thoughts, feelings, and potential biases as they arise. When you’re aware of your internal reactions, you can notice automatic judgments you might make about people or situations. That recognition lets you pause, question whether the bias is influencing your judgment, and consider alternative explanations or approaches. In other words, self-awareness is a tool for reducing, or minimizing, bias in how you think and act.

Increasing bias would go against this purpose, making judgments more distorted. Eliminating all feelings isn’t the goal or reality in practice, and memory improvement doesn’t directly address biased thinking. Developing self-awareness, along with reflective practice and feedback, helps you identify and adjust biased thinking to make fairer, more accurate decisions.
