Incompetence

In a series of studies, Kruger and Dunning tested their theory of incompetence. They found that subjects who scored in the lowest quartile on tests of logic, English grammar and humor were also the most likely to “grossly overestimate” how well they had performed.

From this study on incompetence. Ha, I hope I’m not one of them! I guess you would never know. Although I don’t tell jokes at parties… so hopefully I am not deficient in my self-analysis.
