人们经常从事不诚实的行为,而不会对自己的行为感到内疚。何时以及为什么会发生这种情况?在四项研究中,人们通过道德脱离来证明他们的不诚实行为,并表现出有动机的遗忘信息,否则可能会限制他们的不诚实。使用假设的场景(研究1和2)和真实的任务,包括作弊的机会(研究3和4),我们发现,不诚实的行为增加了道德脱离和动机忘记的道德规则。这种变化不会发生在诚实的行为或考虑他人的行为的情况下。此外,通过让参与者阅读或签署荣誉代码来增加道德显着性,可以显著减少或消除不道德行为。不诚实行为激发道德宽容,导致策略性遗忘道德规则,诚实行为激发道德严格,努力回忆道德规则。
People routinely engage in dishonest acts without feeling guilty about their behavior. When and why does this occur? Across four studies, people justified their dishonest deeds through moral disengagement and exhibited motivated forgetting of information that might otherwise limit their dishonesty. Using hypothetical scenarios (Studies 1 and 2) and real tasks involving the opportunity to cheat (Studies 3 and 4), we find that dishonest behavior increased moral disengagement and motivated forgetting of moral rules. Such changes did not occur in the case of honest behavior or consideration of the behavior of others. In addition, increasing moral saliency by having participants read or sign an honor code significantly reduced or eliminated unethical behavior. While dishonest behavior motivated moral leniency and led to strategic forgetting of moral rules, honest behavior motivated moral stringency and diligent recollection of moral rules.
