We've just launched a new free mini-tool!
Should You Trust Your Thinking?: A Cognitive Confidence Assessment is designed to help you develop a sense of how much trust you place in your own reasoning skills – and whether you might be a little more confident than you realize. Click here to give it a try.
William Shakespeare once said, "The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool." This aphorism captures a profound truth: it's very difficult to accurately gauge your own qualities, especially when it comes to decision-making skills. This brief tool is designed to give you a clearer sense of how you rate your own reasoning chops – and how your confidence compares to others'. By asking a few multiple-choice questions about how you rate your qualities relative to others like you, it compiles a simple report describing how confident you are in your own thinking.
Your report will describe:
How your confidence compares to others who have taken the quiz
How often you grade your individual abilities higher than others'
Suggestions for how to become more self-aware about your cognitive abilities
