Confirmation bias

Conclude with the results you want to see.

A principle that research and development workers needs to be extremely conscious of. Groups can sit with an interest or a wished outcome. This can colour the interpretation of test results or structure a test to make sure an intended success.

The people that are affected by the confirmation bias disease are fully unaware.

Just a thing to be aware of.
