How can you tell if someone’s lying? The answer is, they’re probably not.
Traditional economics says that people make reasonable choices and will lie if it’s to their 31 . A recent university study has shown that, actually, we’re pretty 32 — especially when we’re at home.
Researchers in Germany 33 people at home and asked them to toss (投掷) a coin. There was a strong 34 incentive (刺激) to lie about the result: if the coin landed tails-up, the participants would receive money, while if the coin landed heads-up, they would get nothing. Because they were on the phone, they knew there was no 35 of getting caught if they lied.
And yet people told the 36 . Over hundreds of tosses, a coin will land tails-up about 50% of the time. In this 37 over half the people asked (55.6%) said that the coin landed heads-up, which meant they would receive nothing.
Previous studies had found that people were more 38 . In those laboratory studies, 75% of people reported a 39 coin and asked for a reward. So the research team thinks it’s being in our own homes which makes us play fair, although it’s not yet clear why.
In fact both types of study show people are surprisingly 40 . Even in the laboratory, 25% of people 41 down a reward by telling the truth. The researchers say this is because honesty is 42 valued in human society. We care about our 43 and our sense of ourselves as decent (体面的) people. So lying has a psychological 44 and it seems this cost is more important than the financial benefits of 45 .

At one point she was even 104 outside of her cabin (舱) after a wave locked the 105 from the inside. It took her three hours to open the 106 . Evans often unavoidably got sunburnt, but she managed to 107 in extreme conditions.
“It’s a very 108 sport for me because you can’t get off when you’re there and you have to 109 it. So it was so, so inviting,” said Evans, who was 110 to cross the Atlantic after climbing Mont Blanc in 2017.

How can you tell if someone’s lying? The answer is, they’re probably not.
Traditional economics says that people make reasonable choices and will lie if it’s to their 31 . A recent university study has shown that, actually, we’re pretty 32 — especially when we’re at home.
Researchers in Germany 33 people at home and asked them to toss (投掷) a coin. There was a strong 34 incentive (刺激) to lie about the result: if the coin landed tails-up, the participants would receive money, while if the coin landed heads-up, they would get nothing. Because they were on the phone, they knew there was no 35 of getting caught if they lied.
And yet people told the 36 . Over hundreds of tosses, a coin will land tails-up about 50% of the time. In this 37 over half the people asked (55.6%) said that the coin landed heads-up, which meant they would receive nothing.
Previous studies had found that people were more 38 . In those laboratory studies, 75% of people reported a 39 coin and asked for a reward. So the research team thinks it’s being in our own homes which makes us play fair, although it’s not yet clear why.
In fact both types of study show people are surprisingly 40 . Even in the laboratory, 25% of people 41 down a reward by telling the truth. The researchers say this is because honesty is 42 valued in human society. We care about our 43 and our sense of ourselves as decent (体面的) people. So lying has a psychological 44 and it seems this cost is more important than the financial benefits of 45 .

With nothing but her small boat for company, British lawyer Victoria Evans succeeded in crossing the Atlantic Ocean.

At one point she was even 104 outside of her cabin (舱) after a wave locked the 105 from the inside. It took her three hours to open the 106 . Evans often unavoidably got sunburnt, but she managed to 107 in extreme conditions.
“It’s a very 108 sport for me because you can’t get off when you’re there and you have to 109 it. So it was so, so inviting,” said Evans, who was 110 to cross the Atlantic after climbing Mont Blanc in 2017.
