Ethics Honesty Assessment: A Practical Experiment and Reflective Analysis
A. Your assignment is to go three (3) days without lying. For the purposes of this assignment, we will define lying as the deliberate and deceptive misrepresentation of the truth as you believe it to be. Consequently, the general category of lying includes more types of misrepresentations than an explicit, deliberate, and direct lie. Indirect misrepresentations include deceptive exaggeration and deceptive understatement. These two versions misrepresent the truth by inflating (exaggeration) or deflating (understatement) the facts as you know them. Also, it should not go unstated that a person may lie, not only to others, but also to oneself.
Note Well: You must put forth a genuine and sustained effort not to lie for three (3) days in order to derive the greatest moral benefit and personal insight from this practical experiment.
