Hey Statistics experts, I cannot think of the name for it but what would be the inverse of "survivor bias"? As in, it's not "you think the poison isn't deadly because you only see survivors" but "you think the fertilizer works because you don't see the dead plants".
Or actually, more like "you think the fertilizer works because you only see the tall plants". As in, all the plants are surviving, but you only see the tallest plants and assume the fertilizer is working, rather than seeing all the normal height plants to see it's not working.
Survivorship bias is a subset of the general concept of selection bias (can have + or - selection bias) which is a statistics/balance/distribution concept. It sounds like you're describing confirmation bias though, which is more of a psychology/cognitive science concept.
Yes! That was the word! Holy shit when you don't know one word it is impossible to find something these days. Thanks.
