👉 Beliefs engineering is a cognitive science approach that focuses on the systematic manipulation of people's beliefs, attitudes, and values to influence their behavior and decision-making processes. It involves identifying key beliefs that impact an individual's actions, understanding the underlying cognitive structures and heuristics that shape these beliefs, and then employing targeted interventions to modify them. These interventions can take various forms, such as providing new information, reframing perspectives, or using social influence techniques. By altering core beliefs, beliefs engineering aims to create more rational, adaptive, and beneficial belief systems that lead to desired outcomes in personal, organizational, or societal contexts.
