Når hjernen tar snarveier – beslutninger i barnevernet

from Kafé Student – UiS podkast · host NettOp UiS

Vi liker å tro at vi er rasjonelle når vi tar beslutninger i barnevernet. At vi samler informasjon, analyserer grundig og lander på det som er best for barnet. Men forskning på menneskelig beslutningstaking viser noe annet: Hjernen vår arbeider raskt, bruker mentale snarveier og trekker konklusjoner før vi selv er klar over det. Vi overser informasjon, overvurderer det som føles kjent, og fyller inn hull i fortellingene vi møter – ofte i beste mening, men ikke alltid med best resultat. I denne episoden utforsker vi hva dette betyr for barnevernsfaglige vurderinger: Hvordan påvirkes risikoanalyser av våre kognitive prosesser? Hva skjer når magefølelse får forrang? Hvordan kan vi styrke faglig dømmekraft i komplekse og tidspressede situasjoner? Sammen med Richard Piech diskuterer jeg, Wenche Hovland, teorien om System 1 og System 2, slik den er kjent fra arbeidet til Daniel Kahneman. Videre løfter vi frem ulike Kognitive skjevheter i barnevernsarbeid Student Café: When the Brain Takes Shortcuts – Decision-Making in Child Welfare We like to believe that we are rational when making decisions in child welfare. That we gather information, conduct thorough analyses, and arrive at what is best for the child. However, research on human decision-making tells a different story: Our brains operate quickly, rely on mental shortcuts, and draw conclusions before we are even aware of it. We overlook information, overestimate what feels familiar, and fill in gaps in the narratives we encounter—often with good intentions, but not always with the best outcomes. In this episode, we explore what this means for professional judgment in child welfare: How are risk assessments influenced by our cognitive processes? What happens when gut feeling takes precedence? How can we strengthen professional judgment in complex and time-pressured situations? Together with Richard Piech, I, Wenche Hovland, discuss the theory of System 1 and System 2 as introduced by Daniel Kahneman. We also highlight various cognitive biases in child welfare practice.
