Answer:overestimate

Explanation:

The overconfidence effect occurs when our subjective confidence in our capability is beyond our objective performance. This means we overestimate our ability to do something in a way that we don't even consider other aspects that may bring setbacks in our performance.

This can also be seen in planning fallacy , when a person overstimate the time it will take them to complete a particular task.

Remember that time when you were told about the class test that would take place in 2 weeks but instead of studying early you decided to study two days before a class test because you believed you can do all the work in that short time.

This is the Overconfidence in your own ability.

Why was Wilson not satisfied with the settlement from the Central Powers?

LiRa [457]

Indeed, President Wilson was unsatisfied with settlement from the Central Powers and the signature of the Treaty of Versailles, beyond most of his fourteen points were accepted and included in the final document. He had territorial, economic and military reasons for that:

1. Territorial reasons: he disagreed with Great Britain and France imperialist intentions and he was angry at the fact that some Germany's and Ottoman Empire's colonies passed to Great Britain and France (Alsace-Lorraine, Germany’s overseas colonies, Iraq, Palestine, Syria, Lebanon), as territories in mandates.

2. Economical reasons: Wilson also wanted economic reparations to be given to France as France owed important money to the United States at that time.

3. Military reasons: According to the Treaty, the German army was to be reduced to 100,000 soldiers, armaments sufficient for such army and, to prevent the reserves reconstruction, officers were to serve for twenty-five years and men for twelve. However, President Wilson's concern was that only Germany was forced to disarmament and other countries were not treated the same way.
