The most common thing that I see is something that is good for white being counted as positive for black also on the evaluation. Often, when we are writing the eval, we are thinking from the perspective of white. And so if we are not very careful, we may invert the sign of some evaluation component and count something that is good for white as something that is good for black (or vice versa, though the reverse is seen less often for some reason). There are, of course, many other possible causes besides that.
