Solomon's Paradox in Psychology

Solomon's paradox in psychology refers to the phenomenon where individuals can be wise in advising others on social issues, yet struggle to apply the same wisdom to their own lives. It is named after King Solomon, known for his wisdom in resolving disputes like the story of the two women and the baby. Despite his reputation for wisdom, Solomon struggled in his personal life, especially in parenting his son who became a tyrant. Recent studies and meta-analyses have explored this paradox by examining how people handle social problems in their own lives compared to when advising others.
