                         A person scoring high in Free flowing / Organized is potentially more sensitive
                         to confirmation bias, availability bias and groupthink bias.  The reasons are
                         the same for all three, in that a tendency to be free-flowing and move quickly
                         from one topic to another may prevent the conscious objective pause and self-
                         questioning that is required to mitigate the effects of our subconscious biases.

                         A low scoring person may be susceptible to self-serving bias, attributing
                         undue weight to being “organized” when other factors may be equally or more
                         significant.
