'Knowledge of ignorance' is proved by scientific research
by
The philosopher Socrates preached ' ignore knowledge ' that his own ignorance is the way to a true recognition, but 'the more knowledgeable people recognize the limits of their knowledge, they make mistakes. Research has shown that it is easy to recognize the point of the problem and the idea of others.

People Who Brag About Their Intellect Don't Know as Much as They Think, Study Finds

Elizabeth Clamray Mankaso, a psychologist at Pepperdine University in the United States, studied the concept of 'intellectual humility.' Intellectual bribery: To be openly accepted as cold and open that 'a mistake will happen' and 'your own knowledge is limited'. At the other end of intellectual property is the concept of 'intellectual overconfidence'. Having confidence in your own ideas is basically a good thing, but excessive confidence is perceived as problematic.
In order to investigate intellectual insults and intellectual overtrusts, Mankaso et al.'S research team conducted five experiments with a total of 1,200 subjects to examine 'the various relationships between intellectual insults and learning'. The
First, in the questionnaire survey, subjects answered several questions and at the same time evaluated their answers on the intellectual humility scale developed by the researcher. The scale consists of two things: the 'Knowledge' scale, which examines whether or not it has strong intellectual superiority, and the 'intellectual tolerance' scale, which is trying to learn from others.
As a result, first of all, it turns out that people with intellectual humility have a lot of general knowledge.

The connection between 'intellectual humility and general knowledge' is explained by the research results that intellectual humility is related to 'the ability to accurately measure the general knowledge of people.' In other words, knowing what you don't know (and knowing that 'don't know'!) Is the first step to new knowledge, ”notes Mankaso.
On the other hand, it was also shown that although non-indigent people tend to overestimate their cognitive ability, the degree of intellectual humility does not affect the result of the cognitive test. This was a 'surprising result' as researchers had predicted that there was a link between intellectual humility and cognitive ability.
However, the problem of intellectual humility is also shown in the study of Mankaso et al. I do not know why, but it has been shown that the strength of intellectual humility is related to the lowness of the GPA . Also, subjects with intellectual humility have been shown to underestimate their cognitive abilities.
'A person tends to accept people without bias, but on the other hand people who are not convinced of their conviction are considered' weak 'or those who change their mindset' operational 'or' not stable ' There is also the possibility that there is something to think about. 'A person's view in such a society may make it difficult for people to recognize their own mistakes. A person who thinks' I should have confidence in my own thoughts ' “You may be afraid to change your mind,” says Mankasoh, who believes that deepening the understanding of intellectual humility will affect the way people in society.

From the results of this research, it can be said that at least 'intellectual humility has a broad impact on society.' On the other hand, researchers need more research to understand how intellectual overconfidence affects knowledge, cognition, and the ability to learn new things.
'Intellectual humility contributes to public goods in many ways.' 'Intellectual humility goes beyond the frame of' opinions 'to people's perceptions, including implications for social attitudes and behavior. This research Even if they disagree, it can help to be polite and merciful to people, ”says Mankaso.
