Summary

Students asked to tell a lie in a discussion group overestimated how many people in the group could tell that they were lying. Similarly, volleyball players that perform unusually poorly expect teammates to notice this more than the teammates actually do. Finally, a student wearing a funny T-shirt was noticed only by a small number of people in a room, contrary to what the student expected.

Strongly Supported Conclusions

People tend to think that their appearance is noticed by others more often than what actually happens.
