“…Considering the rate at which we make judgments in our everyday lives, the effort of these normative rules, and the uncertainty of the events they are embedded in, errors in judgment are likely to occur (Kahneman et al, 1982;Rachlin, 1989). A growing body of literature has shown our proneness to judgment errors (Kahneman et al, 1982) as well as their detrimental effect in several domains, such as medical diagnosis (Chen et al, 2023;Saposnik et al, 2016), law (Smith & Greene, 2005), economics (Louie et al, 2007), politics (Schuett & Wagner, 2011), and research publication (Nuijten et al, 2016;Schimmack & Bartoš, 2023). Judgment errors may occur due to heuristics -rules of thumb readily available that reduce the effort of complex predictions of judgment -or biases (also known as cognitive biases) -when people transpose their expectations and contexts to solve judgment problems (Kahneman et al, 1982;Rachlin, 1989).…”

Although people can identify judgment biases and their consequences, they tend to perceive their peers as more susceptible to such biases than themselves: a phenomenon called “bias blind spot”. This phenomenon was experimentally supported by Pronin et al., (2002) through demonstrating an asymmetry of self-other ratings of susceptibility for biases, but not for personal shortcomings. A unique direct replication by Chandrashekar et al., (2021) found support for bias asymmetry, yet also found an unexpected asymmetry for personal shortcomings. We report further evidence for the theoretical maturation of the “bias blind spot” by exploring the generalizability of the original hypothesis in a pre-registered direct replication of Pronin et al., (2002) Study 1 in the Brazilian sample. Participants were presented with descriptions of eight biases and three personal shortcomings, and were first asked to indicate (1 - “not at all”; to 9 - “strongly”) their susceptibility for each description (self), then asked to indicate the susceptibility for “most of the people” (other). Asymmetries were investigated using two-tailed paired sample t-tests. In total, 203 participants rated themselves, on average, as less susceptible to biases in comparison to other people (d = -1.72; 95%CI [-1.88, -1.45]), replicating the original findings. Participants also rated themselves as less susceptible to personal shortcomings (d = -0.33; 95%CI [-0.40, -0.12]), deviating from the original findings, yet showing the same effect described by Chandrashekar et al., (2021). Asymmetry between bias and personal shortcomings was replicated (d = -0.90; 95%CI [-0.90, -0.59]). We successfully replicated two of the three hypotheses from Pronin et al. (2002), accounting for the replicability of the original BBS experiment. The findings from our and a previous replication suggest that the asymmetry for personal shortcomings follows the same direction as the asymmetry for bias, albeit with a lower effect size, possibly resulting in the difference between asymmetries.

Bone age assessments measure the growth and development of children and adolescents by evaluating their skeletal maturity, which is influenced by various factors like heredity, ethnicity, culture, and nutrition. The clinical standards for this assessment should be up to date and appropriate for the specific population being studied. This study validates the GP-Canary Atlas for accurately predicting bone age by analyzing posteroanterior left hand and wrist radiographs of healthy children (80 females and 134 males) from the Canary Islands across various developmental stages and genders. We found strong intra-rater reliability among all three raters, with Raters 1 and 2 indicating very high consistency (intra-class coefficients = 0.990 to 0.996) and Rater 3 displaying slightly lower but still strong reliability (intra-class coefficients = 0.921 to 0.976). The inter-rater agreement was excellent between Raters 1 and 2 but significantly lower between Rater 3 and the other two raters, with intra-class coefficients of 0.408 and 0.463 for Rater 1 and 0.327 and 0.509 for Rater 2. The accuracy analysis revealed a substantial underestimation of bone age compared to chronological age for preschool- (mean difference = 17.036 months; p < 0.001) and school-age males (mean difference = 13.298 months; p < 0.001). However, this was not observed in females, where the mean difference was minimal (3.949 months; p < 0.239). In contrast, the Atlas showed greater accuracy for teenagers, showing only a slight overestimation (mean difference = 3.159 months; p = 0.823). In conclusion, the GP-Canary Atlas demonstrates overall precision but requires caution as it underestimates the BA in preschool children and overestimates it in school-age girls and adolescents.
