Trusting Souls Excel At Spotting Liars
千謊百計(jì)

When you think of someone who’s trusting, you may assume that they’re gullible. But that’s not necessarily true—a fact that your Pollyanna pal might be in a good position to point out. Because people who have faith in their fellow human beings are actually good at spotting lies. The finding is described in the journal Social Psychological & Personality Science.
當(dāng)你覺得某人容易輕信別人, 你可能就會覺得他們?nèi)菀咨袭?dāng)受騙。其實(shí)也不盡然, 你那成天樂呵呵的哥們也許就是一個(gè)很好的例子。原因就在于那些信任朋友的人其實(shí)很善于看穿謊言。這項(xiàng)發(fā)現(xiàn)刊登在《社會心理與性格》期刊上。

Researchers videotaped a cadre of second-year MBA students as they pretended to interview for a job. Half the interviewees were entirely truthful, and half told at least three whoppers, lies they thought would make them more attractive candidates for the fake job.
研究人員拍下了攻讀MBA的學(xué)生去假裝求職面試的大致過程。有一半的面試者表現(xiàn)得十分誠實(shí), 而另一半則撒了至少三個(gè)彌天大謊使他們在模擬求職中更為突出。

The scientists then showed these videos to a second set of subjects and asked them to rate the honesty of the interviewees and say which ones they’d hire. The results: subjects who said they think that most people are basically honest, good-natured, and kind were better at spotting the liars than the self-described cynics. Subjects who were more suspicious were, ironically, more likely to hire the liars and less likely to detect their fabrications.
科學(xué)家們將這些錄像帶給第二組人觀看,讓他們給面試者的誠信做評價(jià)并告知他們想錄取那些人。結(jié)果是,那些認(rèn)為大多數(shù)人都誠實(shí),性格好,善良的人比自詡為憤世嫉俗的人更善于識破謊言。更諷刺的是,那些疑心病重的人到更青睞那些說謊者,也不檢測他們編制的謊言。

So trust may lend itself to better interpersonal intuition. And if you don’t believe that, well, maybe you’re just not being honest with yourself.
所以信任適用于人與人之間的直覺。如果你不相信他,嗯,可能你對自己也不是很誠實(shí)。
