Is there anything a persons chart that may indicate a strong tendency to use selection bias?

Here's what selection bias means. The info is from Wikipedia but it's a sufficient definition: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selection_b…





Assuming you believe astrology can answer something like this. I'm iffy on what I think astrology can and can't do and I definitely take it with a grain of salt. I'm just curious to seem some answers.|||/\ yes, and the answerer above me is a perfect example.



This is the situation the person is complaining of:

As you see, she is choosing to ignore what the question is really asking and chosing to interpret the situation in the exact opposite as it was intended. Also, she is assigning blame to the person who is attempting to clarify something, when the actual offending delineation was actually generated by Cafeastrology, not the person she's attempting to call out as a victimizer.



Therefore, questioner, the answer to your original question is within this same "offending" delineation.



People are going to try to warp anything they can to their defense, regardless of how completely inaccurate and untruthful it is. This mindset is the actual motivating factor behind selection bias.|||When you study astrology, and if you are naturally intuitive, sensitive and relatively smart, you can learn and know a whole lot about yourself, others and interpersonal relationships. What I have found is that a lot of what Astrology can't do is help people to change for the better and to make this world a better place to live. There are many who abuse this knowledge, and personally, I believe that it is one of the worst things one can do.....my own spiritual beliefs on the matter.



As far as the selection bias is concerned, you will find that, as in science, there are those who will try to tamper with the samples or make adjustments to fit their preconceived notions of what should be the results or the manifestation of a particular set-up. You see all the time on Horoscopes, but for the most part, it is just innocence and ignorance....not malicious intent. What might be seen in the natal chart of someone who consciously and arrogantly intends to alter or selectively choose for specific conclusions would be an afflicted 2nd house, Mercury, Mars and Sun, and the more afflictions that are present, the greater the possibility of such devious behavior.|||Yes it can. For example this lady chose to harass me about my aspect sun square neptune. This aspect is seperational. Neither sun or neptune is my chart ruler which weakens the aspect even further. But she chose to make this aspect seem very powerful because it suited her goal at the time. She has done this many times. Including once stating that all libra conjucnt mars people were passive aggressive, which was a complete generalization that sadly people belived because it seemed logical. But if the person who had this aspect was her friend she probably would have interpretted it differently.|||no problemos me no speak the english
