"The Person and the Situation: Perspectives of Social Psychology" by Lee Ross and Richard Nisbett (2011) (http://bit.ly/2XSlkvP)

"An interpretation of the false consensus effect in terms of construal, it should be reemphasized, requires more than the simple assumption that different people construe a given situation in different ways. It depends on the additional assumption that in doing so they fail to recognize or fail to make adequate inferential allowance for the fact that their peers may construe the 'same' situation quite differently. The contention here is that people fail to recognize the degree to which their interpretations of the situation are just that -- constructions and inferences rather than faithful reflections of some objective and invariant reality" (p. 85).
