Bias refers to a tendency or inclination towards favoring or disfavoring a particular group or idea, often without considering evidence or alternatives.

Not exactly. While bias can certainly be influenced by a person's opinions, experiences, or beliefs, it is different from a personal opinion. Bias can manifest itself in a variety of ways, such as a slanted presentation of information, a selective use of facts, or a failure to consider counterarguments. Essentially, bias involves a lack of objectivity and a tendency to favor one perspective over others.
