“I am the trend and the right answer” The illusion that everyone else feels the same way as me[최고야의 심심(心深)토크]

It deals with stories about things deep in the heart. In life, you may wonder, ‘Why on earth is this like this?’ ‘Why can’t my mind do what it wants?’ Please let us know any questions you have by emailing us ([email protected]). Let’s think about it together.

Have you ever been surprised and thought that someone was a ‘weird person’ when someone else had the exact opposite of your opinion? One of the cognitive errors is thinking that your thoughts are always right and that more people will agree with you. Getty Images

“What idiot thinks like that?”

In my opinion, no matter how valid it is, there will definitely be times in life when you encounter ‘fools who think that way’. We even encounter it very often and everywhere. From close friends such as family, friends, and colleagues to supporters of the opposing camp fighting through comments on online articles… . There may have been at least once that you gave up on a conversation due to an opponent’s argument armed with completely unacceptable logic, or turned away and treated you like a strange person.

But there is something to think about. Are all my thoughts really right and the other person’s thoughts all wrong? When I shout out, “Block the road and ask the people passing by!”, will all the people passing by really support my idea? It can be a big mistake to think that your thoughts are the correct answer and standard.

The cognitive error of assuming that everyone else thinks like me is called the false-consensus effect. It is also called the illusion of consensus effect or false consensus effect. This means that the overwhelming majority of people support my ideas, and disparaging opinions are disparaged as abnormal. It appears in a variety of ways, from everyday moments such as a couple’s fight to politically sensitive situations such as these days. If you remember someone’s face insisting, ‘I’m right,’ let’s take a look and see why they’re doing this.
