Question. Dunning-Kruger Effect is dumb people overestimate how smart they are. What is word or effect or whatnot for people who ARE smart and think whatever the think is right, because they are smart?
This is not exactly correct.
Dunning-Kruger Effect is people who are not experienced or experts on a subject/field thinking that they are experts in the subject or over-estimating their competency in a field.
In general the person may be dumb, but DKE is looking at an individual and his competence in his/her knowledge in a field. Paul Krugman is an awesome example of this: Wins the "Nobel Prize in Economics" (this award technically doesn't exist), for his game theory model.
So he thinks he is the best economist ever...when every one of his economic theories/article gets fucking obliterated when applied to the real world showing a complete lack of competency.
This is not exactly correct.
