A famous psychologist got 77 people to volunteer for an unusual project. All were asked to keep diaries for a week and record the number of the lies they told. The result was that only one person claimed he had told no lies. The others told 873 altogether. The lies were not big lies. People would pretend to support a spou or friend more than he or she really believed or to pretend to agree with a relative's opinion. According to the study, women lied mostly so they wouldn't hurt others' feelings and men lied to feel good about themlves. Most surprisingly, people said their lies were no big deal and caud them "little regret". This attitude ems very common in society.
