(i realize i tend to only post when i oppose some study mentioned, but i do really respect and appreciate your work and have shared it several times and blogged about it)
Interesting detail. I wish somebody would do a similar study on politicians ;-) as I suspect their heightened likelihood of narcissism and ego-mania would show they REALLY think they are better than average. Funny, that a previous comment you made was about my mentioning the mathematics of the driver study (where a large majority think they are better than average drivers), which THIS articled also takes as solidly proved.... though, like me, they also gloss over median and mean.
Excellent chapter. I'm looking forward to the praxis ones.
