What do you mean by false positive.
Darling JA, Jerde CL, Sepulveda AJ. Darling JA, et al. Environ DNA. 2020 Nov 25;3(5):879-883. doi: 10.1002/edn3.194. Environ DNA. 2020. PMID: 35330629 Free PMC article.
Here, we identify three challenges to clear communication of false-positive error between scientists, managers, and the public. The first arises from a failure to distinguish between false-positive eDNA detection at the sample level and false-positive inferen …

Colorectal cancer screening.
Bessa Caserras X. Bessa Caserras X. Gastroenterol Hepatol. 2016 Sep;39 Suppl 1:68-78. doi: 10.1016/S0210-5705(16)30177-7. Gastroenterol Hepatol. 2016. PMID: 27888867 English, Spanish.
There was confirmation of the importance of not delaying endoscopic study after a positive result. Participants with a negative FIT (score of 0) had a low risk for colorectal cancer. Several studies seemed to confirm the importance of high-quality colonoscopy …

Editorial Commentary: A Positive "Half Dial Test" Is Seen in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury, so Get Out Your Goniometer.
Rossi MJ. Rossi MJ. Arthroscopy. 2017 Jul;33(7):1382-1383. doi: 10.1016/j.arthro.2017.02.017. Arthroscopy. 2017. PMID: 28669472
Isolated anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)-deficient knees have roughly 7 of increased external rotation at both 30 and 90 of flexion compared with both the contralateral knee and the ACL reconstructed knee. This positive "Half Dial test" may be a new approach to confirm …

Generalized model-based solutions to false-positive error in species detection/nondetection data.
Clare JDJ, Townsend PA, Zuckerberg B. Clare JDJ, et al. Ecology. 2021 Feb;102(2):e03241. doi: 10.1002/ecy.3241. Epub 2021 Jan 18. Ecology. 2021. PMID: 33190269
Simulation results demonstrate that estimators for abundance and migratory arrival time ignoring false-positive error exhibit severe (20-70%) relative bias even when only 5-10% of detections are false positives. ...Models accounting for false-positive error f …

Non-prescription Fentanyl Positive Toxicology: Prevalence, Positive Predictive Value of Fentanyl Immunoassay Screening, and Description of Co-substance Use.
Kerensky T, LaRochelle M, Fan SL, Kosakowski S, Wason K, Walley AY. Kerensky T, et al. J Addict Med. 2021 Apr 1;15(2):150-154. doi: 10.1097/ADM.0000000000000723. J Addict Med. 2021. PMID: 32909981
Samples that confirmed positive for acetyl fentanyl and/or fentanyl and/or norfentanyl were considered true positives. RESULTS: Of 11,873 urine samples, 10.4% of samples screened fentanyl positive and 8.8% were confirmed fentanyl positive …

Cocaine identification.
Winek CL, Eastly T. Winek CL, et al. Clin Toxicol. 1975;8(2):205-10. doi: 10.3109/15563657508988064. Clin Toxicol. 1975. PMID: 1149411
Scott's three-solution procedure was examined and should be considered the method of choice for testing pure compounds suspected to be cocaine. Because of false positives for cocaine encountered with mixtures of drugs such as lidocaine and phencyclidine, Scott's procedure …

The computational roots of positivity and confirmation biases in reinforcement learning.
Palminteri S, Lebreton M. Palminteri S, et al. Trends Cogn Sci. 2022 Jul;26(7):607-621. doi: 10.1016/j.tics.2022.04.005. Epub 2022 May 31. Trends Cogn Sci. 2022. PMID: 35662490 Review.
Humans do not integrate new information objectively: outcomes carrying a positive affective value and evidence confirming one's own prior belief are overweighed. Until recently, theoretical and empirical accounts of the positivity and confirmation bias …
