Wegstock #12 – Dan Gilbert

In 2011, a conference honoring the late Dan Wegner, “Wegstock,” was held at Harvard University. The talks are brief and are well worth watching.  We are highlighting individual talks, roughly 15 minutes each, through August and September. In this video, Dan Gilbert gives another one of his funny and fascinating talks — this one on the psychology of admitting mistakes and the surprising connection between evidence and an denial.
