Decision Making in a Community of Knowledge
Have you ever tried to explain something you thought you understood and then realized your knowledge of it is not as deep as you thought? Professor Steven Sloman studied this “illusion of explanatory depth” and talked about it on a Choiceology podcast and co-authored a book about it, “The Knowledge Illusion: Why We Never Think Alone." It applies to all kinds of things, like how everyday objects work as well as the pros and cons of a policy proposal. It can help us be a little more humble in considering how firmly we hold our positions on issues.
