Dunning–Kruger effect - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dunning–Kruger effect - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which low-ability individuals suffer from illusory superiority, mistakenly assessing their ability as much higher than it really is. Dunning and Kruger attributed this bias to a metacognitive inability of those of low ability to recognize their ineptitude and evaluate their ability accurately."


The Impostor syndrome, in many ways, is the opposite of Dunning-Kruger.
