Overview

Instrument development reports children's perspectives on parental lying's impact on trust, suggesting nuanced views.

Key Points

  • Children showed differentiated evaluations of different types of parental lies, impacting their trust levels.
  • The new instrument effectively captured children's perspectives, with high accuracy of classifications regarding lies.
  • Pilot results indicated that children regarded child-benefiting and prudential lies more favorably than parent-benefiting lies.
  • Our research highlights the importance of understanding children's views on parental lying and trust.
