TheDunning–Kruger effectis a hypotheticalcognitive biasstating that people with lowabilityat a task overestimate their own ability, and that people with high ability at a task underestimate their own ability.
As described bysocial psychologists David DunningandJustin Kruger, the bias results from an internal illusion in people of low ability and from an external misperception in people of high ability; that is, "the miscalibration of the incompetent stems from an error about the self, whereas the miscalibration of the highly competent stems from an error about others".It is related to the cognitive bias ofillusory superiorityand comes from people's inability to recognize their lack of ability. Without theself-awarenessofmetacognition, people cannot objectively evaluate their level of competence.
