This volume elucidates some of the very concrete ways in which
Americans misperceive the social world and how we are all subject
to biases and illusions. As such, it challenges the assumption in
much social science theorizing that people are rational actors by
exploring how the machinations of cognition, the effect of our past
experiences, the news, and social media feeds all factor into our
opinion-making process. The chapters highlight common, and often
incorrect, perceptions of population diversity, sexual behavior,
the economy, health, and relationships. It shows how correcting
these misperceptions of the social world can lead to real
behavioral and attitudinal change.
