“…Our forecasters were not equally overconfident across the range of confidence. Figure 1 divides confidence into bins, as is common practice (Keren 1991). The most striking result is how well calibrated forecasters were: the dots lie close to the identity line.…”

“…Nevertheless, these studies often report that confidence exceeds accuracy. For example, when subjects express 90% confidence, they may be correct only about 75% of the time (for reviews, see Keren, 1991;Lichtenstein, Fischhoff, &Phillips, !982;Yates, 1990). Overconfidence is prevalent but not universal: It is generally eliminated and even reversed for very easy items.…”

“…External correspondence is the degree to which a person's likelihood judgments accord with the actual occurrence or nonoccurrence of the target events under consideration (Yates, 1982). The literature on overconfidence, for example, is concerned with one aspect of external correspondence (e.g., Adams & Adams, 1961;Fischhoff, Slovic, & Lichtenstein, 1977;Lichtenstein, Fischhoff, & Phillips, 1982;Keren, 1991). Do people's judgments of the likelihood of some target event "match" the relative frequency with which the target event occurs?…”
