Perhaps one could adapt some of the work in what intelligence tests miss. For those that have the book: there is a chapter titled "How many ways can thinking go wrong? A Taxonomy of Irrational thinking tendencies and their relation to intelligence". That would give us the categories "heuristics", "lack of knowledge" and "wrong knowledge". The categories about knowledge could be further divided into academic fields such as probability theory, logic, language, psychology.
