I'm having trouble finding / remembering the psychological effect that describes this phenomenon: when people read something such as a horoscope or something generally similar to themselves, they apply it more than they should. For example: "You are a nice guy with many unseen attributes that shine once noticed.", "Wow, this is so true!".
