Primes¶
- Dunning-Kruger Effect
- The mechanism implies that competence and self-assessment are entangled rather than independent: ĉ (perceived) = f(c, metacognitive_access), where low c also restricts access to accurate assessment of c itself.
This sourceReviews the systematic imperfection of self-assessment; supports D16-102 (perceived competence as a biased function of competence and metacognitive access).
Supported in partVerified against the publisher's abstract
The abstract supports the qualitative claim that self-views track actual competence only loosely and that self-assessment is intrinsically difficult, but it states no functional form and no low-competence metacognitive-access clause.
“In general, people's self-views hold only a tenuous to modest relationship with their actual behavior and performance.”

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
