Answer: cognitive bias                                      

Explanation:

A cognitive bias refers to a systemic process of divergence from standard or reason in judgment. From their interpretation of information, participants create their own "naturalistic worldview." Often, therefore, cognitive biases can contribute to visual distortion, incorrect decision, nonsensical perception, and what is commonly considered irrationality.

There are certainly some cognitive limitations that are evolutionary. Cognitive biases can result to more efficient behavior. In addition, enabling cognitive biases allows for faster decision making that may be beneficial when punctuality is more important than precision, as shown in heuristics.
