TL;DR: A comprehensive review of the literature on dishonesty can be found in this article, where the authors conclude that many people behave dishonestly, but also that it is a highly malleable behavior sensitive to elements such as decision contexts, behaviour of others, state of mind and depletion.

TL;DR: It is found that increasing awareness of cheating as an option significantly increases the probability that women cheat; whereas men – who are already aware that cheating is an option – are not affected.

TL;DR: The authors explored the honesty among citizens across 16 countries with 1440 participants and found that individuals are mostly honest, and that international indices that are indicative of institutional honesty are completely uncorrelated with citizens' honesty for their sample countries.

TL;DR: This article investigated framing effects in a large-scale public good experiment and found that framing only had a small effect on the average level of cooperation but a substantial effect on behavioral heterogeneity explained almost exclusively by a corresponding change in the heterogeneity of beliefs about other subjects' behavior.

TL;DR: This paper showed that the way the public good game is framed affects misperceptions about the incentives of the game and that such framing-induced differences in misperception are linked to the framing effect on subjects' cooperation behavior.
