Cheating, why do people cheat? I couldn’t agree more with him. We see no harm in bringing back a pen from our working place, whereas we felt morally wrong to bring back a dollar (less than the value of a pen) from the petite cash box in our office. What goes?

Ariely goes on to describe other revealing experiments. For instance, paying people in tokens that they could exchange for cash doubled the amount of cheating compared to paying people directly in cash. And when people saw an outsider (like a college student wearing a sweatshirt from a university they weren’t attending) cheating, cheating among the group went down, but when a colleague cheated, cheating among the group went up.
