They Studied Dishonesty. Was Their Work a Lie?
Dan Ariely and Francesca Gino became famous for their research into why we bend the truth. Now they’ve both been accused of fabricating data.

I dunno if bluesky paper threads are gonna work (I don't really understand why threads here aren't visible publicly), but I'm gonna try one anyway.

Here's what I've been working on for the last year or two.
