- End-of-history_illusion abstract "The end-of-history illusion is a ubiquitous psychological illusion in which teenagers and adults of all ages believe that they have consistently experienced significant personal growth and changes in tastes until now, but will somehow not continue to grow and mature in the future. That is, despite knowing how much they have changed in the last ten years, they believe that ten years from now, they will think and feel the same as they do today.Because of this illusion, perhaps related to a failure of imagination or an inflated sense of how wonderful they are at the moment, teenagers believe that they are mature, because they compare their current maturity against their immature childhood selves and see progress. However, as teenagers, they are unable to understand how much they will change in the future, so they assume that their current level of maturity is as mature as they can or should ever be. When those same people look back at their teenage selves from middle age, they are amused or chagrined to think that they once thought their teenage selves so mature—but they make the same error of assuming that their middle-aged selves are now the final level of maturity and personal development. As seniors, they look back at their middle-aged selves with the same wonder that they could have thought maturity and development ended at middle age, but they once again make the same mistake of assuming that no significant growth or change is possible for the future.".
