In a new HBO documentary about the fall of Theranos, behavioral economist Dan Ariely described an experiment on the psychology of lying.
In the documentary, Gibney interviewed behavioral economist Dan Ariely about an experiment on the psychology of lying.
Elizabeth Holmes, founder of the now-defunct startup Theranos, has been accused of fraudulently claiming that her company's technology could perform health tests using only a small amount of blood. The experiment is fairly simple. Participants roll a standard six-sided die, and before the die is rolled, they are asked to silently choose whether the top or bottom number on the die will be higher. After the die is rolled, the participant tells the experimenter which side of the die they chose, and are then paid a small amount of money based on the number on that side of the die.
In a twist to the experiment, Ariely hooked up participants to a lie detector while playing the die game. He found that, generally, the lie detector could tell when participants were dishonestly choosing the favorable side of the die.
