👀How do you get people to listen to experts? Non-experts often think they know best, but this experiment shows that if you first ask them to explain how something works (“how does trade with China hurt the US?”) it causes self-doubt & makes them actually pay attention to experts

To clarify, the method was to have non-expert PRIVATELY write down their explanation on how something works or why they have a particular belief; not for the expert to quiz them & tell them that they were wrong. It was a self-realization that they didn’t understand that mattered!
