- red_trumpet 6y agoBaader-Meinhof phenomenon, also called frequence bias: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cognitive_biases#Frequency_illusion https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cognitive_biases#Frequ... Not sure where it's got this name from, though.

It's right in the paragraph you linked: "It was named after an incidence of frequency illusion in which the Baader–Meinhof Group [0] was mentioned."

- StavrosK 6y agoIt gets the name from someone noticing that, after learning about the Baader-Meinhof gang, started seeing the name everywhere, and it stuck. I think it was on some forum in the 90s.
