Why Do Incompetent People Overestimate Their Abilities?
š” The Answer
- The Dunning-Kruger effect shows low performers lack metacognitive insight into their flaws.
- Incompetent individuals fail to recognize genuine expertise in others, skewing self-assessment.
- Overestimation stems from inability to objectively evaluate one's own performance.
- Training and feedback can reduce this bias by improving self-awareness and skill recognition.
