@JinXunGoh Sorry if this already came up, but there's research on the illusion of explanatory depth. Basically, when people have to explain things they sometimes realize they don't know what they are talking about. https://t.co/y63AO4MZtX
La evidencia sugiere que el sentido equivocado de las personas de que entienden los procesos causales subyacentes a las políticas contribuye a la polarización política. https://t.co/rVacP7ZqQ6
Pedir a la gente que explicara las políticas en detalle socavó la ilusión de profundidad explicativa y condujo a actitudes más moderadas. https://t.co/rVacP7ZqQ6
