The Halo Effect is a cognitive bias where an individual's overall impression of a person influences their evaluations of that person's specific traits or abilities. If someone has a positive general impression, they are more likely to perceive individual characteristics positively, and vice versa. This bias can lead to inaccurate assessments and judgments, as it overlooks nuanced aspects of an individual's performance or personality. The term "halo" reflects the overarching positive or negative impression that colors perceptions of specific attributes, preventing an objective evaluation.
