They get it correct when it’s in an appropriate social context, not simply because it’s happening in real life. If it didn’t happen in real life, confirmation bias wouldn’t be a real thing.
Right, but I want to use a closer to real life situation or example that reduces to the wason selection task (and people fail at it) and use that as the demonstration, so that people can see themselves fail in a real life situation, rather than in a logical puzzle. People already realize they might not be very good at generalized logic/math, I’m trying to demonstrate that the general logic applies to real life as well.
