Wasn’t this DK effect already debunked?
- jahewson 3y agoI don’t know much about it but I’m sure you’re right.
- hasch 3y agoArticle mentions 2016 somewhere. They explain a bit on top of that, with more depth ... at least my rough take on this
- xbar 3y agoYes. This article highlights the 2016, 2017 and 2020 debunkings of DK. But it hangs on as an oft repeated scientific fallacy. The fact that anyone has to ask if it has debunked shows how desirable some people find the DK myth. Even in the comments here, people are not willing to be skeptical of DK. That's interesting psychology.

- mrkeen 3y agoYes but some claim to have debunked the debunking also. [1] This paper (2023) claims "the magnitude of the effect was minimal; bringing its meaningfulness into question."
