confirmation bias is seeing what you want or expect to see, and ignoring what contradicts it.
For example, if a person who you have always seen and is irresponsible you will always see the negative in them and when they do something positive you ignore it because you perceive them as being irresponsible.
Confirmatin bias is a tendency for people to favor information that they like regardless of whether the information is true.
An example of confirmation bias is when researchers are sometimes guilty of confirmation bias by setting up experiments in ways that will tend to confirm their hypotheses.

Ok I know they ansered this but ima add up to it & give a different example..
Confirmation bias is the tendency to notice & remember things that support your beliefs, & ignore evidence that contradicts its.
Perfect examples could be when people say that if they eat chocolate, they'll get pimples.. or saving that sugar gets you hyper.
Confirmation bias would fit good with me because I belive chocolates do give you pimples :(
