在7个实验（N= 3883），我们证明，沟通者和目标作出自我中心的道德判断的欺骗。具体来说，沟通者更关注欺骗给他们带来的代价，例如，当他们违反道德规则时，他们会感到内疚，而目标则更关注欺骗是帮助还是伤害他们。因此，传播者和目标对亲社会谎言的不对称判断：传播者通常认为省略信息比说亲社会谎言更道德，而目标通常认为相反。我们记录了这些影响的背景下，医疗保健的讨论，员工裁员，和经济游戏，在临床人群（即肿瘤学家和癌症患者）和外行人。我们确定主持人和下游这种不对称的后果。最后，我们讨论的心理和实际的影响，医学，管理，行为伦理学和人类沟通。（PsycInfo数据库记录（c）2020阿帕，保留所有权利）
Across 7 experiments (N= 3883), we demonstrate that communicators and targets make egocentric moral judgments of deception. Specifically, communicators focus more on the costs of deception to them—for example, the guilt they feel when they break a moral rule—whereas targets focus more on whether deception helps or harms them. As a result, communicators and targets make asymmetric judgments of prosocial lies of commission and omission: Communicators often believe that omitting information is more ethical than telling a prosocial lie, whereas targets often believe the opposite. We document these effects within the context of health care discussions, employee layoffs, and economic games, among both clinical populations (ie, oncologists and cancer patients) and lay people. We identify moderators and downstream consequences of this asymmetry. We conclude by discussing psychological and practical implications for medicine, management, behavioral ethics, and human communication.(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2020 APA, all rights reserved)
