Scary what they invent names for and even test for .. then add a name to it , I watched "PATTON" the other night , he had a few choice words and very well documented .. today's word everything has a label .. "Combat Stress Syndrome" back then it was "You Spineless Coward" .. "Yella Belly" , least how George C Scott played it .
In New Zealand Politics.. Its called the "I don't recall Syndrome" and "Were is my 100,000 thou bottle of wine" ...
, Love to know the name of that poison !

Yes we even had to change our calls at minimums on approach to mitigate against "continuation bias".
At minimums it used to be either "Landing" or "Go-around".
Somewhat ironically it is now "Continue" or "Go-around".
The use of the word "landing" was thought, by the boffins, to mentally reinforce that a landing was going to happen when in fact a Go-around still remains an option (even after touchdown).
It's what happens when Psychiatrists are let loose in aviation.

Remember the 50-50-90 rule. Anytime you have a 50-50 chance of getting something right, there's a 90% probability you'll get it wrong!

On landing I commonly hear .. Retard Retard ... that is not sending a good message ... miss-spell it "Your a RETART RETART" not a good thing I'm guessing .
