The Monte Carlo Casino Example
The chance of hitting a black ball in a game of roulette is 47.4%. Therefore, the probability of the ball landing on black 26 times in a row was roughly 1 in 67 million. The Monte Carlo Casino event above is a perfect example of clustering illusion bias.
What is clustering illusion in psychology?
The Clustering Illusion is the tendency to erroneously perceive small samples from random distributions to have significant 'streaks' or 'clusters'. It is caused by the human tendency to under-predict the amount of variability likely to appear (due to chance) in a small sample of random or semi-random data.
