You are Not so Smart

I have been really enjoying a blog I found linked in an article on lifehacker.com. In addition to the catchy and somewhat biting title, the "You are Not so Smart" blog attempts to summarize findings from studies of human behavior in accessible language. I am definitely a armchair psychologist and make no assertions regarding the accuracy and completeness of the content on the aforementioned blog. But I've found it fascinating and thought-provoking to read, so I thought it was worth throwing up a link:

Click on "All Posts" at the top and find a topic that sounds interesting to you. My favorites are "The Just World Fallacy" and "The Perils of Introspection." Of course, this is probably because they are in line with my "Confirmation Bias."
