Black-box some Western peoples from number 13 so that in some hotels Miss 13 of elevators, and absent roommate 13, we now in Egypt, especially in the Arabic States another kind of biases now that make pessimism Tuesday as a day of the week and you think that waiting for disasters to occur Tuesday.

But what makes this bias against the concept on Tuesday, or 13, or more precisely what constitutes biases minds even if irrational dramatically?
To answer these questions you should know well about the cognitive biases that control some of our decisions and judgments.

The cognitive bias known as deflection in making decisions, leading to many decisions that don't add up.

Like our case now, what's to link bad events the day of the week?

Of course this is irrational, but cognitive bias or reasonable or specific kinds of cognitive biases (confirmatory bias _ Conformation bias)

Confirmation bias is the tendency to self, or search for information and explanations that are compatible with our view we only.

The natural thing to take any decision or adopt a particular viewpoint is to gather all the information and views on the matter it objectively, and then begin to build one of those views accordingly, but misspell it capsizes affirmative bias altogether, and turn to search for information in order to adopt the correct viewpoint
To search for information that matches your opinion only.

Be the relationship between affirmative bias, and on Tuesday?

So to think independently on Tuesday, and to collect all the events that occurred today, and compare the ratio of good and bad happenings in today!.

Do all events bad?!

Of course not, that's happening in your mind because you adopted a alnzortlk face to your mind started the process to offset the action of issuing bad events,

And why everyone feels so that Tuesday is an ominous day?

It interpreted the phenomenon of collective mind, and how miss critical mind when a group, then you are in the middle of the Group lose their distinctive may be reasons for you sometimes.

In an article on Psychology Today, Professor Shahram Heshmat says that affirmative bias is a product of the influence of desire for belief. The desire and inner vanity of man makes you think that what you think is always true and to adapt to it begins to gather evidence.

The influence of affirmative bias also appears in areas such as politics and law, even medicine,

In the election season, your candidate is aligned, so you always look for the opinion that this bias will prove, and that support for the candidate is unlimited

This is reflected in the results of opinion polls, even in old democracies, where polls are often ratified, despite the fact that the elections pass through stages of debate, when your candidate fails to answer the question and how the economic crisis will solve it, but you support it and must take sides. Whatever it is, you should look for reasons for this bias.

What about medicine and the judiciary where your life depends on the bias of the principle of the doctor where the doctor is likely initially a specific diagnosis of the disease, often interfere with the diagnosis that appears after the tests, and the results of analysis.

Sometimes, however, the assertive bias appears in the results of research. Researchers use research findings that support their hypothesis only, while ignoring other results that may contradict those hypotheses

There is no doubt that this is one of the most important defects observed in paper, and maybe stop searching all.

This happened in Britain in the year 1998, when one of the doctors came out in an article in the magazine (The Lancet) claims that the measles vaccine is responsible for increasing the chances of autism, based on a study of 14 cases only!.

Scientific circles arose in the wake of that, reveals the lie that claim, and that the doctor had come down on the results that he wanted to prove his point only, and delete search result.

No doubt that the phenomenon that makes you hate on Tuesday, and black-box of the number 13, and possibly causing an erroneous diagnosis of doctor you need to use the mind always avoided critic, Tuesday is not always unpleasant.
