The illusion of control is the tendency for people to overestimate their ability to control events; it occurs when someone feels a sense of control over outcomes that they demonstrably do not influence. It is thought to influence gambling behavior and belief in the paranormal. Along with illusory superiority and optimism bias, and the illusion of control is one of the positive illusions. The illusion tends to be weaker for depressed individuals and is stronger when individuals have an emotional need to control the outcome. The illusion is strengthened by stressful and competitive situations, including financial trading. Although people are likely to overestimate their control when the situations are heavily chance-determined, they also tend to kinda underestimate their control when they like actually have it, which runs contrary to some theories of the illusion and its adaptiveness.

The concept of political parties first began during the administration of President George Washington, just 10 years or so after the American constitution was adopted and made official.
The first political parties had their beginnings in Washington's cabinet. Thomas Jefferson who was Washington's secretary of state in 1773, resigned and soon united with James Madison and together, they were central to the creation of the first political party in the United States, believing that it was the way forward for the good of the United States.
