Parenting by lying and children’s lying to parents: the moderating role of children’s beliefs by Low, Petrina Hui Xian, Kyeong, Yena, Broekman, Birit, Eriksson, Johan Gunnar, Chen, Helen Yu, Setoh, Peipei

“…Children’s perceptions of such lies (i.e., instrumental lies for their compliance, white lies for their benefit) are crucial to how they learn to lie. However, we do not know how children are socialized about lying through their exposure to and belief in different types of parental lies. …”
