Comerford D (2021) Exposure of faked dishonesty study makes me proud to be a behavioural scientist. The Conversation. 08.09.2021.
Abstract
First paragraph: The story has a lot to recommend it: psychologist Dan Ariely, the author of a bestselling book on the behavioural science of dishonesty, retracts his study because the data was faked. No wonder it¡¯s been picked up by the world¡¯s media. Buzzfeed declared this ¡°the latest blow to the buzzy field of behavioural economics¡±. Psychologist Stuart Ritchie, himself a scientist, wrote about the case under the headline: ¡°Never trust a scientist¡±.
