I would consider it as a Pavlovian conditioned reflex. In 70s there was an incident of Russian fighter jets landing gear up. The aircraft came in for landing the gear was seen to be down but had to go round. In second approach landed wheels up. In inquiry pilot was sure he had lowered the gear in downwind. Actually he had forgotten to raise the gear after missed approach and in downwind he thought he is putting it down but in reality he had raised it. PK8303 actually confirmed a lot of human factors.
