Diagnostic chapter connects a phenomenon to the section of clinical classification where a related condition is described, when one exists. Wikipedia notes that the study of cognitive biases "has practical implications for areas including clinical judgment, entrepreneurship, finance, and management," clinical judgment being the area closest to formal diagnosis. This grouping is useful mainly for phenomena that shade into a recognized clinical picture.
