The two types of noise are closely related. == Noise in signal detection == Making accurate forecasts requires that one is able to find valid evidence indicating what will be the true state of the world at the c...")

This is contrasted with the concept of noise, which is a departure from normativity in many directions. The existence of cognitive biases is a central concern for making better forecasts. A cognitive bias is not ''necessarily'' a deviation from the correct answer (though it can be), but a deviation from normativity. For example, Bayes Theorem is a norma...")
