Why Do We Lie? A Practical Guide To The Dishonesty Literature (2018, background): “Bucciol and Piovesan (2011) focused on children and whether they were as capable of engaging in cheating behaviour as adults. They tested whether children aged 5–15 would act dishonestly when they could get away with it, and they found that children of all ages cheated, but not to the full extent po”
Preferences for Truth‐Telling (2016, background): “…Blanco and Cárdenas 2015 2 103 Colombia die roll 1D6 Braun and Hornuf 2015 7 342 Germany die roll 1D2 Bryan et al. 2013 * 3 269 USA coin toss 1D2 Bucciol and Piovesan 2011 * 2 182 Italy coin toss 1D2 Cadsby et al. 2016 1 90 China die roll 1D6 Cappelen et al. 2016 * 2 1473 Tanzania coin toss 6D2…”
Cheating in Mind Games: The Subtlety of Rules Matters (2013, unknown): “The mind games used in this paper add to the recent experimental paradigms that utilize the known distributions of die or coin tosses to infer cheating (See e.g., Bucciol and Piovesan, 2011; Hao and Houser, 2010; Heusi and Fischbacher, 2008; Greene and Paxton, 2009).”
Let’s be honest: A review of experimental evidence of honesty and truth-telling (2014, background): “Evidence suggests that incidences of overreporting the most profitable outcomes fall when subjects are explicitly instructed not to cheat (Bucciol & Piovesan, 2011) or have taken moral vows (Utikal & Fischbacher, 2013).”
Separating Will from Grace: An experiment on conformity and awareness in cheating (2013, methodology): “The task is taken from Bucciol and Piovesan (2011).”
Who lies? A large-scale reanalysis linking basic personality traits to unethical decision making (2018, methodology): “The supplementary material (https://osf.io/56hw4) provides a more technical definition of the generalized modified logistic regression model and also the R code to fit the model with the software Stan (Carpenter et al., 2017).”
Fairness and cheating (2012, methodology): “The self-reported outcome of a random event as an indicator for cheating was used in lab experiments by Fischbacher and Heusi (2008) as well as Bucciol and Piovesan (2009).”
Representative evidence on lying costs (2014, background): “Previous studies focused on particular groups: Bucciol and Piovesan (2011) study a sample of children and find that many of them lie, unless they are reminded to be honest; Cohn et al. (2013) study prisoners and find that they become less honest when reminded of their criminal identity; and Utikal…”
