“ولعل أحد الأمثلة المألوفة على "الجهل الجمعي" يتجسد في "سيناريو قاعة المحاضرات الصامتة" الذي يقع فور انتهاء محاضرة تترك الطلاب في حيرة وذهول، فحالما تنتهي المحاضرة يسأل الأستاذ: "هل لدى أي منكم أسئلة؟"، ولا ينطق أي شخص ببنت شفة، وينظر كل فرد في حجرة الدراسة حوله في قلق ليرى غيره من الطلاب يجلسون في هدوء، ويفترض مخطئًا أن الجميع سواه قد فهموا المحاضرة.”

“Equally popular are speed reading courses, many of which promise to increase people’s reading speeds from a mere 100 or 200 words per minute to 10,000 or even 25,000 words per minute (Carroll, 2003). Yet researchers have found that none of these courses boost people’s reading speeds without decreasing their reading comprehension (Carver, 1987). What’s more, most of the reading speeds advertised by these courses exceed the maximum reading speed of the human eyeball, which is about 300 words per minute (Carroll, 2003). A word to the wise: If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is (Sagan, 1995).”

“The fact that we’ve heard a claim repeated over and over again doesn’t make it correct. But it can lead us to accept this claim as correct even when it’s not, because we can confuse a statement’s familiarity with its accuracy”
