Choice Hacking: The Marketing Psychology Podcast

Unskilled and Unaware: The Story of the Dunning-Kruger Effect

Episode Summary

Have you heard of the Dunning-Kruger Effect? It says that people who are unskilled at a task — often because they’re new at it — are overly positive when asked to evaluate those skills. It's a common cognitive bias, and it's pretty sneaky. And if you're not careful, the Dunning-Kruger Effect can undermine your decision-making and productivity. Join me today as I explore the Dunning-Kruger Effect - what it is, how to avoid it, and how to spot it in those around you.
