OpenPsych<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote><p>The Dunning-Kruger effect is a well-known psychological finding. Unfortunately, there are two aspects of the finding, one trivial, indeed a simple statistically necessary empirical pattern, and the other an unsupported theory that purports to explain this pattern. Recently, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zotero.org\/google-docs\/?EIm6lT\">(Gignac &amp; Zajenkowski, 2020)<\/a> suggested two ways to operationalize and test the theory. We carried out a replication of their study using archival data from a larger dataset. We used two measures of self-estimated ability: estimated sumscore (correct responses), and estimated own-centile. We find no evidence of nonlinearity for either. We find evidence of heteroscedasticity for self-centile estimates, but not raw score estimates. Overall, the evidence was mostly inconsistent with Dunning-Kruger theory.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is the accompanying video of our 2021 paper: Kirkegaard, E.
