The false uniqueness effect is a cognitive bias where individuals perceive their traits, qualities, or experiences as more unique or rare than they actually are. This leads people to believe that their thoughts, feelings, or behaviors are distinct from those of others, often resulting in a sense of superiority or isolation. It can influence personal relationships and self-esteem, as individuals may underestimate the commonality of their experiences. Essentially, it reflects a misjudgment in how typical or atypical one's characteristics are in a broader context.
