Psychologists have discovered that people tend to believe that they are better, smarter, and kinder than other people. They have called this the self-serving bias or better-than-average effect or self-enhancement bias.
A self-serving bias is a common habit of a person taking credit for positive events or outcomes, but blaming outside factors for negative events. It tends to occur widely across populations.
The better-than-average effect is the tendency for people to perceive their abilities, attributes, and personality traits as superior compared with their average peer.
Self-enhancement is the tendency for individuals to take all the credit for their success while giving little or no credit to other individuals or external factors.
