Abstract

The study of individual differences in social-perceptual biases can illuminate both normative models of judgment and patterns and co-occurrences among biases. Empirical research on the latter is especially important because some hasty claims about the relationships among biases have already been made. The putative mutual exclusivity of social projection and self-enhancement serves as an illustration.

Keywords
