Compared with their neurotypical (NT) counterparts, persons with autism appear to be less inclined to tell lies and less skilled in delivering sophisticated forms of deception. At the same time, some forms of deception like white lies and prosocial lies are frequent in human interaction because they are important for social success. This article challenges the reader to evaluate the therapeutic potential for prosocial deception and teaching white-lie telling to autistic persons. The nature and development of antisocial and prosocial lying in NT development and autism are reviewed. Considerations for when to (and when not to) teach the skill of empathic lying are discussed and recommendations for how to teach the comprehension and production of prosocial lies are offered.
与神经典型（NT）个体相比，自闭症患者似乎不太倾向于撒谎，也不太擅长进行复杂形式的欺骗。与此同时，一些欺骗形式，如善意的谎言和利他的谎言，在人际交往中很常见，因为它们对社交成功很重要。本文旨在挑战读者对利他型欺骗的治疗潜力的评估，以及对自闭症患者进行善意谎言教育的潜力。本文回顾了 NT 发展和自闭症中反社会和利他性说谎的性质和发展。讨论了何时（以及何时不）教授同理心说谎技巧的考虑因素，并提供了教授理解和产生利他性谎言的建议。
