Little Liars: Development of verbal deception in children
Lying is a common occurrence during our everyday interpersonal communication. People tell lies for different purposes. In this talk, I will focus on how children learn to tell lies to conceal their transgressions from a very young age, and whether and how various cognitive-social-contextual factors affect the development of lying. I will also discuss cognitive-social-neural mechanisms underlying such development.
