Previous Research on Misperceptions

Kublinski et. al: random sample in Illinois- generally inaccurate beliefs, those who were the most incorrect had the highest confidence in their knowledge

Bullock: when subjects were shown evidence of false beliefs, they became more confident in their misperceptions

Gilens, Howell, Sides: corrections have little to no effect on immigration, crime and foreign aid, and education policies
