Cognitive Bias Lens

Explain or compare a named cognitive bias using an evidence-aware lens. Use when a user asks what a bias means, whether two concepts differ, or how a bias may matter in a decision. Do not diagnose people or treat a bias label as proof of cause.

What it does

A repeatable workflow, not another bias-name list.

Use it when

  • A user names a cognitive bias and wants a useful explanation rather than a dictionary definition.
  • Two bias concepts sound similar and need to be distinguished.
  • A real decision may involve a known pattern, but the user needs the evidence boundary kept visible.

It returns

  • Plain-language pattern
  • Evidence boundary
  • Where it may matter
  • Alternative explanation
  • Practical check
  • Related concepts when useful

Safety boundary

Useful skepticism without amateur diagnosis.

  • Never diagnose a person as having a bias.
  • Never infer intent, intelligence, personality or mental health from a bias label.
  • Do not present an unreviewed or disputed effect as settled science.
  • Return uncertainty or no match when the concept cannot be identified reliably.
