Apophenia
(reading time – 20 sec.)
Apophenia is the tendency to perceive meaningful connections between unrelated things
For example, gamblers may imagine that they see patterns in the numbers that appear in lotteries, card games, or roulette wheels, where no such patterns exist. A common example of this is the gambler's fallacy.
