In this work, we suggest that emotions differentiated by cognitive appraisals may promote self-concern or other-concern that alter the utilitarian calculus of weighing the harm and benefits associated with moral decision-making. We introduce the Emotions and Ethics Framework to elucidate the intrapsychic effect of emotion on deception. When emotions promote self-concern, individuals are more likely engage in selfish deception. By contrast, when emotions promote other-concern, individuals are more likely to exhibit honesty. Furthermore, we extrapolate our theoretical model to consider how felt emotions influence different types of deception: selfish lies, prosocial lies, spiteful lies, and pareto lies. Finally, we theorize about the interpersonal effect of emotional expressions on deception, suggesting that the ethical consequences of emotion contagion and reverse-appraisal processes are distinct.
在这项工作中，我们提出，通过认知评价来区分的情绪可能会促进自我关注或他人关注，从而改变与道德决策相关的权衡伤害和益处的功利计算。我们引入情感与伦理框架来阐明情绪对欺骗的内在心理影响。当情绪促进自我关注时，个体会更倾向于进行自私的欺骗。相比之下，当情绪促进他人关注时，个体会更倾向于表现出诚实。此外，我们推断我们的理论模型来考虑感受情绪如何影响不同类型的欺骗：自私的谎言、亲社会的谎言、恶意的谎言和帕累托的谎言。最后，我们对情绪表达对欺骗的人际影响进行了理论化，认为情绪传染和反向评价过程的伦理后果是不同的。
