- Dunning-Kruger Effect

Supported in partVerified against the publisher's abstract
Heine and Hamamura's meta-analysis shows large East Asian versus Western differences in self-enhancement, supporting cross-cultural variation in self-favouring bias.
“Overall, the evidence converges to show that East Asians do not self-enhance.”

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 2 citations: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Was it audited? Yes. A second, independent pass read the citation against the article text and recorded a verdict.
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.
