Dunning-Kruger Effect

Dunning-Kruger Effect:

  • People with poor abilities often overestimate their skill level;
  • People with poor abilities cannot accurately recognize the level of others who truly possess these skills;
  • People with poor abilities are unable to perceive and face their own shortcomings, as well as the extreme degree of these shortcomings;
  • If people with poor abilities can significantly improve their skill levels through appropriate training, they will eventually realize and admit their previous incompetence.
