The inherence heuristic is inherent in humans

James A Hampton. Behav Brain Sci. 2014 Oct.

The inherence heuristic is too broad as a theoretical notion. The authors are at risk of applying their own heuristic in supporting itself. Nonetheless the article provides useful insight into the ways in which people overestimate the coherence and completeness of their understanding of the world.
