Classical economic theories suggest that the greater the appeal, the less likely we are to be honest-but a new study turns the idea on its
26、head, finding altruism(利他主义)，and a powerful hate for viewing oneself as a “thief outweigh the financial attraction. A team of researchers conducted a huge experiment concerning 355 cities in 40 countries. More than 17,000 identical wallets were dropped off at public places, each containing a grocery
27、 list, a key, and three business cards in the local language using made-up names and an email address. Some - 4 - had no money while others contained the equivalent(等值)of $13.45.

28、hows extreme differences between countries. But although rates of peoples honesty varied greatly from country to country, one thing remained remarkably constant: wallets with money, as opposed to no money, raised reporting rates.

31、 to behavioral scientists. Altruism also influenced the findings, the researchers say. Since the key is valuable to the owner but not the finder, this pointed toward an altruism concern in addition to the cost of negatively updating ones self image. 32.
