I always worry about self-assessment data. Especially when an experimenter or other participants are in the room or otherwise observing or interacting with the participant during the self-assessment. The results of Dunning-Kruger-adjacent experiments always present their results as measuring "How people think they perform" against "How they actually perform", when they seem to actually be measuring "How people tell other people they perform" against "How they actually perform". Which seems to me like it's a slightly different thing? It seems like the pop-sci "those people are too stupid to know how stupid they are" interpretation isn't the only plausible interpretation, anyway.
