LIZARAZO DE LA OSSA, SOFÍA  e  SANCHEZ, FLOR. Effects of the Lie in the Work Context: Loss of Trust and Negative Emotional Experience. Rev. colomb. psicol. [online]. 2016, vol.25, n.2, pp.251-264. ISSN 0121-5469.  https://doi.org/10.15446/rcp.v25n2.50717.

This study analyzes the effects of the purpose of the lie on the trust in those who lie and on the emotional response of those who detect it, in the work environment. The results show that when lying aims to favor the liar and does damage to others, less trust is expressed in the liar than when the lie aims for self-benefit without doing damage to others (2.17 vs. 3.72, d=-1.55, p<.001). Also, when the lie causes damage to others, it produces negative emotional responses of greater intensity, especially disappointment (t=27.95, p<.001) and sadness (t=13.60, p<.001). The study concludes that the emotional experience could explain the loss of trust due to lies which aim to benefit the liar.
