Selective observation occurs when someone focuses on specific data that confirms their existing beliefs while ignoring evidence that contradicts them. For example, a person who believes that a particular diet is effective may only notice success stories and testimonials from those who have lost weight on that diet, while disregarding cases of individuals who did not achieve similar results. This bias can lead to faulty conclusions and reinforce misconceptions.
