					<description><![CDATA[NEW SONG ALERT!* &#160; &#8220;In the field of psychology, the Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias, wherein persons of low ability suffer from illusory superiority when they mistakenly assess their ability as greater than it is. The cognitive bias of illusory superiority derives from low-ability persons&#8217; metacognitive inability to recognize their own ineptitude.[1]&#8221;  Wikipedia entry [&#8230;]]]></description>
