REUPLOADED: 'Do your own research' and the Dunning-Kruger Effect

DONATIONS TO CHARITY MATCHED THIS WEEK!!: I do not ask for contributions. Instead, please support the work of Health in Harmony, which trades forest protections for health care. See my video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j9-GRugP9pU for an explanation of their work. Donations will be worth double for the next week, and possibly to the end of the month. Please donate here: https://www.healthinharmony.org/donate Health in Harmony also has a live website: https://www.healthinharmony.org/ This video has been re-uploaded for several reasons: 1) I got a lot of 'complaints' that the two Dunning-Kruger effect graphs I used are not in the Kruger and Dunning study. I never said they were, of course, and it should be pretty obvious that these are just drawings designed to illustrate what has become known as the Dunning-Kruger effect. This was in the video description, but a lot of people did not read it. 2) There were a couple of occasions when I wrong attributed principles to the Kruger and Dunning paper, rather than the Kruger-Dunning effect. That was a mistake, which I am now happy to correct in the video. If you don't mind me saying so, that is the difference between research and Do-your-own-research. When you research something and discover it's wrong, you correct yourself, and go with what is correct. When you DYOR, you look for what you believe in and refuse to correct it, even when it turns out to be wrong. 3) The Dunning-Kruger Effect was never in Kruger and Dunning paper, which is why I made the distinction. The former is a principle popularised and inspired by the paper. Again, I made that clear in the video description, but this time it has been spelled out in the video itself. My apologies to those who had already started discussions in the other comments section. Please continue them here.
