My favorite  Stanford professor, Bob Sutton, gave a talk at the Friday HCI seminar about his new book Good Boss, Bad Boss.  If you search my blog for Sutton you'll see how often I refer to him (probably more than to Malc and T-Fried combined :)
You can see the video here.  During the Q&A, about 77 minutes into the video, he talks about one of my favorite psych papers that  made its way into my research and software engineering in general: "Unskilled and Unaware of It: How Difficulties in Recognizing One's Own Incompetence Lead to Inflated Self-Assessments"
