Two's in:
Cognitive Dissonance.
is the holding of two or more contradictory views at the same time
I think you mean
Confirmation Bias where the brain seeks evidence to prove an established belief, such as the 'fact' that the strip of concrete in front is in fact a runway, despite the lack of correct markings.
Simple solution would be to put a lighted, yellow, X at the north end of Taxiway T.
How difficult could this be??
How about identifying a way to avoid the error to begin with? (e.g.that will be the 3rd strip in from the right) or trap - there are no runway markings, let's line up with another next bit of concrete, and finally mitigate - not happy here, go-around.
Sometimes, identifying the threat is the key part - e.g. there are lots of parallel strips at SEA, how will we identify that we are lining up on the correct one, especially if offered a late switch?
