--bullshit-- "... those who were overconfident about their bullshit radar (feeling that it was better than average) had what the study terms as a “bullshit blindspot,” while those who underestimated their bullshit radar had “bullshit blindsight,” meaning that they actually were in a better position to discern misinformation..." would love to see good research that measures confirmation bias in relation to bs radar overestimation and bs radar underestimation. my guess is that much of the difference relates to individual difference in confirmation bias (whether or not a person agrees with the bullshit/not bullshit statements being rated).
