The Dunning-Kruger Effect | The overconfidence in inability

Have you ever experienced someone who believes they are more capable in an ability, skill, or knowledge in a certain area than they actually are? Is this narcissistic or is the person genuinely unaware of their ignorance? What you have witnessed is a cognitive bias called the “Dunning-Kruger” effect. Requested by one of our supporters, we dive into what this bias is, give some common examples of what you may find in everyday life, how we all might be guilty of it, and most importantly how to counteract this.
