In their article, Warneken and Orlins () provide insight into children's prosocial lie-telling. Their work adds to a growing body of literature regarding the development of prosocial behaviour and indicates that young children will tell 'white lies' in order to improve the mood of others. This work has important implications for forensic contexts that we note.
在他们的文章中，瓦内肯和奥林斯（）深入探讨了儿童的亲社会说谎行为。他们的研究成果丰富了关于亲社会行为发展的文献，并表明幼儿会为改善他人情绪而说“善意的谎言”。我们注意到，这项研究对司法环境具有重要意义。
