Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Research has shown that people have a bias towards remembering and paying more attention to positive feedback than negative feedback. This is sometimes referred to as the "positivity bias." In contrast, people may be more likely to disregard or forget negative feedback, which can contribute to the difficulty of delivering constructive criticism. Upward feedback refers to feedback from subordinates to superiors, while downward feedback refers to feedback from superiors to subordinates, and while it is possible that upward feedback may be more memorable, there is no consistent evidence for this.
