Description
The topics of cognitive science have expanded in recent years, going from studying classic topics such as perception, reasoning or decision making; to more general themes such as dishonesty. As various authors maintain, dishonesty covers issues such as cheating, deception, corruption, concealment, (dis)trust, among others. The variety of problems that accompany these themes begins with the way in which we understand these concepts, the reasons that cause this type of behavior to be committed, the consequences, their detection, the emotional aspects that accompany them, and a long etcetera. . Sometimes attempts have been made to address these problems by appealing to theoretical and experimental approaches, sometimes traditional, such as, for example, how humans perceive that cheating is occurring, or how it is decided whether to cheat or not. Other aspects closer to the 4E explain how the social or the environment can make a subject or a group of people stop engaging in dishonest behavior. Here, for example, the topic of pushing has been widely developed. In that table we will address this large set of coordinates.
