Study Notes

One example of this is the Solomon Asch experiment, in which social psychologists found that only 24% of subjects didn't say the wrong answer on average when asked a simple question about lines on cards.
Psychology is useful because it can help us understand how people think and behave, even in cases where what we think is obvious is not actually true.
again, because it's true that we have ideas of how things work and our brains work. We don't actually have any idea a lot of the time. The Misattribution Effect
