Lying Aversion and the Size of the Lie

TL;DR: Gneezy et al. as discussed by the authors presented a model of lying costs that generates hypotheses regarding behavior and found that the highest fraction of lies are from reporting the maximal outcome, but some participants do not make the maximal lie.

Obviously Strategy-Proof Mechanisms

TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose a new solution concept: a mechanism is obviously strategy-proof (OSP) if it has an equilibrium in obviously dominant strategies, i.e., a strategy is obviously dominant if and only if a cognitively limited agent can recognize it as weakly dominant.

Preferences for Truth-Telling

TL;DR: The authors show that people lie surprisingly little and formalize a wide range of potential explanations for the observed behavior, identify testable predictions that can distinguish between the models and conduct new experiments to do so.

Do Lab Experiments Misrepresent Social Preferences? The Case of Self-Selected Student Samples

TL;DR: The authors empirically investigate whether laboratory experiments with student samples misrepresent the importance of social preferences and find that students who exhibit stronger prosocial inclinations in an unrelated field donation are not more likely to participate in experiments.

Risk Attitudes, Randomization to Treatment, and Self-Selection Into Experiments

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the common use of non-stochastic show-up fees can generate samples that are more risk averse than would otherwise have been observed, but that it does not affect the demographic mix of risk attitudes in the sample.
