Survey Finds: Lying Through a Phone is Preferable
Filed in archive Mobile by Eric Hanson on December 29, 2006

Frankly, I'm not surprised by these results. It's a lot harder to successfully pull of a lie in person than it is on the phone and it's even easier when you can lie by text - no facial expressions or vocal
inflections come into play. The disparity between work and family lying isn't too surprising, either; the reason why companies like Wal-Mart employ greeters is to make a personal connection with you from the moment you enter the store - so you'll be less likely to steal something. Apply the same principle to family ties versus job ties (as most people do automatically) and the difference in the percentages makes sense.Permalink: Survey Finds: Lying Through a Phone is Preferable
