Detection signals
- Causal chain is unusually smooth despite sparse evidence.
- Alternative explanations are absent.
- Story coherence is prioritized over evidence fit.
Narrative fallacy
Building overly coherent stories from fragmented evidence.
The narrative smooths ambiguity and missing links into a single causal storyline that is more coherent than the underlying evidence.
Caution notes
- Narrative simplification can aid comprehension.
- Bias appears when simplification materially distorts uncertainty.
