Edit for Psych

I know you listed different studies on public speaking and the illusion of transparency. Alhtough, I didn't see much else mentioned on how to cope with these problems. Does required public speaking classes in college help, is it a permanant problem or something they can work out of? A little more on Treatments would be a good addition.JMC554466 (talk) 13:41, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

Upcoming changes

I have found a few sources that might be relevant to this subject area. I am currently researching and preparing to update this page soon.

This article provides a good definition for Illusion of Transparency, something not commonly known. The information on the specifics of the tests done is a great reference and way to further explain and elaborate. Also, providing information on the key researchers makes the public aware of the continued study of this phenomena. There was a lot of information provided about stage fright, but it might help to add more information about other situations illusion of transparency crosses into as well. Interesting article, provides good references and sources as well as links to additional material and more on the research behind it. (AMJonesPT (talk) 04:32, 20 July 2011 (UTC))

Here is another good source: [1] --MTHarden (talk) 02:58, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

The additions look really good. Didn't catch any grammatical errors that stood out to me (though I'm not super reliable with that). Some future additions that would help make the article better might go more in depth to explain why people experience this illusion, other places where this is prominent (aside from just public speaking), and possibly more information on studies done to observe this. The information here though is really good, someone just needs to do some digging for more information. --MGualdoni (talk) 23:30, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

Dubious Experimental Support

The "Experimental Support" section cites only a YouAreNotSoSmart blog post, rather than a published paper. As far as I can tell, this is actually where the purported numerical results of the 'experiment' come from, since the cited blog post doesn't cite any papers. The post doesn't even claim that this mysterious woman Elizabeth Newton, who is nowhere to be found on Google Scholar, is a psychologist. I'm not familiar with Wikipedia's citation standards, but it seems this is a grievous issue that ought to be addressed by someone who knows what they're doing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Grognor (talk • contribs) 18:31, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

Apparently it was her PhD dissertation at Stanford. I've added a higher-quality ref saying so and added that context to the text. Yngvadottir (talk) 18:56, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

Illusion of transparency vs Curse of knowledge?

What is the difference between this page and [Curse of knowledge]? I guess we should merge them into one? Ooker (talk) 15:52, 3 August 2018 (UTC)
