Maybe he lost it.

Can you give us the link to the copy paste whence you derived it?

I will post it myself, if you do.

I have it in post # !!.   He gave a partial definition. A vague one. Shocker. 

Hey @Blackvegetable  , aka coward, aka dumb mother ****. Let me break this down for your dumb ***. You see the 4 options to the question? Every option includes your definition, but only one is an example of survivorship bias. Your definition was half assed. Like all of your content. 

When a sample fails to reflect "mortality" in the population being examined.

or

"Sampling error"

Which scenario is an example of survivorship bias in evaluating business success?

A) Believing that reading business books increases revenue after finding many CEOs recommend them.
B) Concluding that most startups fail after analyzing bankrupt companies.
C) Thinking entrepreneurship is easy because most media profiles focus on successful founders.
D) Surveying customers to understand why they chose your product over competitors.
