To be clear, sometimes authority bias is good and proper. For instance, valuing the opinion of a climate scientist who has been studying climate chaos for thirty years more than your Aunt who saw Rush Limbaugh say climate change is a hoax in the 1990s is normal and rational.

Basically, authority bias as a reasoning flaw stems from misidentifying who is authoritative on a subject.

Actually the reason I order the last item the server mentioned is because of crippling social anxiety

That’s just, like, your opinion, man.

Ahh negativity bias, my other middle name.

:P

What's going on with the kerning?

Is there a "positivity bias" counterpart to "negativity bias"?
