Why do people lie? It\'s an age-old question that\'s been asked for perhaps as long as our species has had verbal capabilities.\\xa0

In this episode, Dr. Corey Stocco from The University of The Pacific joins me to discuss the existing scholarship in this area, as more specifically, the work that he and his colleagues have done in this area. Specifically, we walk through a recent paper that was published in Behavioral Interventions, Further Evaluation of Contingencies on Lying About Homework Completion.\\xa0

Regarding this paper, we got way into the weeds in terms of how he recruited participants, the data that they had to leave out for space considerations, what they learned from this work, and where they want to go next in looking into the lying/truth-telling dynamic.\\xa0

We even talked about how\\xa0Kevin Luczynski\'s\\xa0kid earned reinforcement for peeing on his floor.\\xa0

As always, Corey closes out the show with some great advice for the newly minted!

Lastly, on a housekeeping note, if I sounded more nasally than usual, your ears are working correctly. I was battling a cold during the interview, and I hope it wasn\'t too distracting for the purposes of this interview.\\xa0
