当前的研究通过增加认知负荷来测试道德决策的边界条件。这种操纵被认为会阻碍深思熟虑，并且正如我们所说，会降低发生自私偏见所需的认知能力。由于人们认为说谎比说真话在认知上更费力，我们假设参与者在高认知负荷下比在低认知负荷下会更诚实。 173 名参与者在高认知负荷或低认知负荷下匿名掷了 3 次骰子，并报告了他们的结果（其中一次将获得奖金）。对于决定薪酬的掷骰，在低认知负荷下而非高认知负荷下的参与者报告的掷骰结果与均匀（诚实）分布显着不同。报告的该滚动结果在低负载条件下也显着高于高负载条件下，这表明低负载条件下的参与者撒谎以获得更高的报酬。在第二次和第三次掷骰中没有观察到这种模式，因为参与者知道掷骰不会被支付，因此说谎不会为自身利益服务。因此，结果表明，在认知能力较高的情况下，认知能力有限的人会表现出诚实的倾向，而认知能力较高的人会通过说谎来服务于自身利益。
The current study tested the boundary conditions of ethical decision-making by increasing cognitive load. This manipulation is believed to hinder deliberation, and, as we argue, reduces the cognitive capacity needed for a self-serving bias to occur. As telling a lie is believed to be more cognitively taxing than telling the truth, we hypothesized that participants would be more honest under high cognitive load than low cognitive load. 173 participants anonymously rolled a die three times and reported their outcomes — of which one of the rolls would be paid out — while either under high or low cognitive load. For the roll that determined pay, participants under low cognitive load, but not under high cognitive load, reported die rolls that were significantly different from a uniform (honest) distribution. The reported outcome of this roll was also significantly higher in the low load condition than in the high load condition, suggesting that participants in the low load condition lied to get higher pay. This pattern was not observed for the second and third roll where participants knew the rolls were not going to be paid out and where therefore lying would not serve self-interest. Results thus indicate that having limited cognitive capacity will unveil a tendency to be honest in a situation where having more cognitive capacity would have enabled one to serve self-interest by lying.
