Incorrue

Incorrue is a term with no established meaning in major scholarly disciplines as of the mid-2020s. Unlike standard technical terms, incorrue has appeared only sporadically in online discussions, speculative fiction, and some glossaries that are not widely cited. Because there is no consensus, the word is best treated as a neologism or placeholder rather than a defined concept.

In those contexts, incorrue is used to denote an idea or process that relates to incorrectness or correction, but the exact sense is context-dependent. Some writers present incorrue as a cognitive or perceptual phenomenon that biases judgment toward incorrect conclusions; others frame it as a theoretical category for errors in data representation, reporting, or communication. In literary usage, incorrue can describe a fictional effect or rule that makes a character’s beliefs drift toward error in a controlled narrative environment.

Origin and etymology for incorrue are uncertain; it appears to be a modern coinage likely blending elements of "incorrect" with a -ue ending common in coinages. Because the term lacks standard usage, readers should rely on the source's definition when encountering it. If future scholarship adopts the term, a formal definition and citations would be expected to accompany it.
