Who is affected by the Dunning-Kruger effect?
Unfortunately, we all are.
This is because no matter how informed or experienced we are, everyone has areas in which they are uninformed and incompetent.
You might be smart and skilled in many areas, but no one is an expert at everything.

Way to Overcoming
...you can gain a more realistic assessment of your own abilities in a particular area if you are not sure you can trust your own self-assessment?
- Keep learning and practicing. Instead of assuming you know all there is to know about a subject, keep digging deeper.
- Ask other people how you're doing . Another effective strategy involves asking others for constructive criticism.
- Question what you know . Seek out information that challenges your ideas.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
