Science is making headway at finding proof of what many of us already intuitively know.
This study shows that hubris, pride, and other such negative group expressions really result from group insecurity.
Many of us already know that people over-compensate for perceived failings by excessive boasting. This study just provides scientific evidence to support that notion.
The study points to real world implications. Good stuff.

You know, thats so true. How many people that make fun of someone are just jealous that they dont have the guts/talent/beauty/athletic ability of the person they tease? They try to make themselves out to be better than everyone else.... but its always a false pretense.
