Social:Narrative bias
From HandWiki
Short description: Bias towards individual narratives
Narrative bias, also known as narrative information bias, is a cognitive bias that skews perceptions towards information contained in individual narratives, as compared to complex data or other forms of information.
It refers both to the tendency to trust anecdotes over other forms of information,[1][2][3] as well as a form of illusory correlation that connects unrelated variables into a cohesive narrative.[4]
