One of my favourite pages on wikipedia:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cognitive_biases
The thing about that is that it's a little too complete. How can there be both negativity bias and normalcy bias, for example?
To make any sense, you'd need to break it down into a flowchart or algorithm of some kind, that predicts the skew from objectivity based on the situation and personality tendencies.
I think they probably appear in different types of situations, not all at once. And maybe different types of people/thinking are more prone to some than to others.
