Highlights • Organizational decision-making is influenced by self-assessments of knowledge. • Overclaiming refers to self-reported knowledge of nonexistent concepts. • Overclaiming varies significantly by the familiarity of the informational context. • Familiar informational contexts lead to higher overclaiming. • Subjective knowledge mediates the effect of informational context on overclaiming.
With 8 new studies, @daviddunning6.bsky.social, @stavatir.bsky.social and Emily Rosenzweig tested whether & why familiar contexts lead to increased overclaiming-- the tendency of individuals to claim knowledge they don't have. #PsychSky #UmichResearch www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
