The type of bias that refers to a way of thinking that ignores or overlooks information that disagrees with people's beliefs is called "confirmation bias." Confirmation bias is the tendency to search for, interpret, favor, and recall information in a way that confirms one's preexisting beliefs or hypotheses, while giving disproportionately less consideration to alternative possibilities.
