Professor Gino was less interested in catching cheaters than understanding them. She tested volunteers to see how creative they were. Then she tested them in situations involving small amounts of money, where they could earn extra by cheating.
与抓骗子相比,吉诺教授更乐意去了解他们。她对志愿者进行测试,看他们创造力怎么样。然后她在涉及小额钱的状况下对他们进行测试,如果他们作弊会赢得更多钱。
For example, they took a test and had to copy their answers onto another paper. But on that other paper the correct answers were already lightly marked, supposedly by mistake. The test-takers knew they would earn more for correct answers. They were led to believe they could cheat without getting caught.
例如,他们参加一项测试,必须将他们的答案抄到另一张纸上。但在这另一张纸上,装作工作失误,答案已经被轻微的标记出来了。被测试者知道如果填写正确答案可以赢得更多钱,并被引导相信自己可以作弊而不被抓到。
