Judging truth in others

[Sven]

Today in a psychology lecture... The following statement came about:

"People are only about 54% accurate in judging truth and deception in others"

 

I'm not feeling like writing why I find this statement amusing at the moment, but I think most of you get the point.

The question was answered through a poll by the way, and the results are:

is judgement something to behold?

 

is truth something that can be defined?

 

do "others" really exist outside of conception?

They are far less accurate judging truth and deception in themselves.
