Whoa, the top 2 contrarians going at it for the top spot?

This round goes to buckeye.
I spent 10 years studying psychology. I'm no expert, but I'm not just making this up. However, I am an expert at knowing that while we can reasonably hypothesize the basis of a behavior from research, we can't draw absolute conclusions.

I'm not being a contrarian; I'm just saying that overconfidence and establishing superiority can be a reaction to insecurity, even if the insecurity is only in that moment.

Sure, that's a possibility but it is a very remote possibility.

It's also a possibility that what you call "overconfidence and establishing superiority" is actually justified confidence and superiority which is the more likely possibility.
