What Is Naive Realism and How Does It Affect Us?

Naive realism sa a phenomenon that affects all of us, chris. We imagine that we can sort of put ourselves in their shoes and very quickly ask, what would we do in that situation? So when we see people you now pursue delusional beliefs or engage in self deception, it's easy to sit in judgment of those people. And naive realism convinces us that we would not fall a prey to the same biases. Of course, many of us realize that when we ourselves are in positions of great vulnerability, we turn to such beliefs themselves.
