Many annotation tools can speed up the classification of images (or other data) by providing a prediction of the correct label which the user can accept or correct. However, humans have a tendency to leave things as they are (Status Quo Bias) or just accept the provided default option (Default Effect).

What name is commonly used for this effect? Are there scientific papers to cite that report and elaborate on this?

The general term used to describe this phenomenon is "anchoring"; I don't know if there is an annotation-specific term.

Anchoring and Agreement in Syntactic Annotations can be a starting point to reviewing relevant research.
