someones lying? the answer is, theyre probably not.traditional economics says that people are rational（理智的）beings who will lie if its to their advantage. a recent university study has shown that, actually, were pretty honest -especially when were at home.researchers in germanyphoned people at home and asked them to toss（投掷） a coin. there was a strongfinancial incentive(刺激) to fake the result: if the coin landed tails-up, the participants would receive money or a gift ticket, while if the coin landed heads-up, they would get nothing. because they were on the phone, they knew there was norisk of getting caught if they lied.and yet people told thetruth.over hundreds of tosses, a coin will land tails-up roughly 50% of the time. in thisstudy 0ver 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 moredishonest. in those laboratory studies, 75% of people reported a winning coin and claimed a reward. so the research team thinks its being in our own homes which makes us play fair, although its not yet clear why.in fact both types of study show people are surprisinglyreliable. even in the laboratory, 25% of peopleturned down a reward by telling the truth. the researchers say this is because honesty ishighly valued in human society.we care about ourreputation and our sense of ourselves as respectable people. so lying has a psychologicalcostand it seems this cost is more important than the financialbenefits oflying
