Description

In this episode of Health411, host Dr. Jonathan Karp and producer Daniel Geller discuss the Dunning-Kruger effect. This term, put simply, describes how individuals unfamiliar with a subject or concept believe that they know a significant amount more. It is a common trend seen across many different aspects of life, and can actually cause harm if not checked. Scientific literacy is also discussed as a possible way to alleviate the Dunning-Kruger effect commonly seen in places like social media.
