捡到钱包要归还失主,这是一个基本的道德准则。可是,如果捡到的钱包里有一大笔钱呢?是不是就不那么容易做到拾金不昧了?
答案是,你想错了。最新调查表明,遗失的钱包里现金越多,拾获的人将其归还的可能性越大。
Does the amount of cash in a lost wallet impact how likely a person is to return it?
遗失钱包内的现金数量是否会影响其归还率?
Classical economic theories suggest that the greater the temptation, the less likely we are to be honest -- but a new study turns the idea on its head, finding that altruism, and a powerful aversion to viewing oneself as a "thief," outweigh the financial incentives.
经典的经济学理论认为,诱惑越大,我们越不可能诚实,但一项新的研究颠覆了这一观点。这项研究发现,利他主义和把自己看作“小偷”的强烈厌恶感会胜过经济诱因。
altruism ['æltrʊɪz(ə)m]:n.利他;利他主义
aversion[ə'vɜːʃ(ə)n]:n.厌恶;讨厌的人
A team of researchers studied these questions in a huge experiment spanning 355 cities in 40 countries -- one of the most rigorous investigations so far into the intersection of economics and psychology.
一组研究人员在针对40个国家355个城市的大型实验中研究了这些问题,这是迄今为止对经济学和心理学交叉领域最严谨的调查之一。
