Bias refers to an author’s expression of

his/her own opinion on a particular issue
without examining and presenting
enough evidences. This arises from the
author’s thinking which may be
influenced by personal beliefs, culture,
attitudes, preferences, and past
experiences.

When does an author become bias?

An author becomes bias when he/she
persuades the reader to believe on
his/her own stand of the issue by giving
inaccurate information or false
impression
even with or without the intention of
misleading the readers.

How do you determine the author’s

biases?

To determine the author’s biases and to

understand his/her underlying purpose,
you must look at the use of evidence and
diction.
 Evidences can be in a form of
facts and information, testimonies
and direct observations, scientific
and legal findings, and anecdotes
and philosophical evidences.
 Diction refers to the words or
expressions that help convey the
stand of the author towards an
issue. These words and
expressions may indicate a
positive or negative connotation
or meaning.

The table below shows an example of a

word with a positive and a negative
connotation.

woman.

Here are some guide questions to check

the author’s use of evidence.
 Does the author present more
positive evidences to support one
side of an issue?
 Does the author present more
negative evidences to disprove
one side of an issue?

Here are some guide questions to check

the author’s diction.
 Does the author use more positive
words and expressions to present
one side of an issue?
 Does the author use more
negative words and expressions to
present one side of an issue?

Here are some ways to avoid bias in

writing:

1. Recognize your own biases: The

first step in avoiding bias is to be
aware of your own biases. Take
some time to reflect on your own
beliefs and values, and consider
how they might influence your
writing.
2. Use diverse sources: Seek out a
variety of sources that represent
different perspectives and points
of view. This can help you to
present a more balanced and
nuanced view of the subject
matter.
3. Be objective: Strive to present
information in a neutral and
objective manner. Avoid using
language that is emotionally
charged or that makes
assumptions about the reader's
beliefs or values.
4. Avoid stereotypes: Be mindful of
stereotypes and avoid using
language that reinforces them.
Instead, strive to present
individuals and groups in a way
that is respectful and accurate.
5. Check your facts: Make sure that
your writing is based on accurate
and reliable information. Double-
check your sources and verify any
 facts or statistics that you use.
6. Use inclusive language: Be
mindful of the language that you
use, and strive to be inclusive and
respectful of all individuals and
groups. Use gender-neutral
language where appropriate, and
avoid using language that could
be considered derogatory or
offensive.
