Teleworking antecedents: an exploration into availability bias as an impediment
Information Systems and E-Business ManagementAbstractTelework technologies have been known since the 1970s, yet their adoption levels remained low until Covid-19-related lockdowns and curfews.

Recurrent Pneumonia? A Case of Availability Bias and Anchoring. [PDF]
Cureus, 2020 Invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma is a multi-centric adenocarcinoma that accounts for less than 5% of all lung cancer diagnoses. The most common presenting symptoms (cough, sputum production, and chest pain) in conjunction with its radiographic findings (patchy, multi-lobar infiltrates) make invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma challenging to distinguish ...

The 'availability' bias: underappreciated but with major potential implications. [PDF]
Crit Care, 2014 AbstractMany biases have been described that potentially introduce prejudice or a systemic error into a study that would favor one outcome versus another. One major source of bias has, so far, been underappreciated: the availability bias. When the study intervention is available to clinicians outside of the clinical trial, the trial could become biased

Combining passive acoustic data from a towed hydrophone array with visual line transect data to estimate abundance and availability bias of sperm whales (Physeter macrocephalus) [PDF]
PeerJ, 2023 Visual line transect (VLT) surveys are central to the monitoring and study of marine mammals. However, for cryptic species such as deep diving cetaceans VLT surveys alone suffer from problems of low sample sizes and availability bias where animals below ...

On the availability bias in narwhal abundance estimates
NAMMCO Scientific Publications, 2022 Abundance estimation of narwhals is usually done with either visual or photographic aerial surveys. The basic estimation for both methods is detection of whales at the surface, and to obtain fully corrected abundance estimates, the at-surface detections

Using tagging data and aerial surveys to incorporate availability bias in the abundance estimation of blue sharks (Prionace glauca). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 There is worldwide concern about the status of elasmobranchs, primarily as a result of overfishing and bycatch with subsequent ecosystem effects following the removal of top predators.

Case clustering in infective endocarditis: the role of availability bias [PDF]
Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2005 Limited data exist regarding the impact of variations in clinical practice and physicians' cognitive bias on the diagnosis of infective endocarditis (IE). As an illustration of these effects, unexpected clustering of IE diagnosis was encountered in a prospectively studied cohort.
