Resumen de In the afternoon, the moral slope gets slipperier

Maryam Kouchaki, Andrew O'Connell

• The article presents an interview with Maryam Kouchaki, research fellow at Harvard University's Edmond J. Safra Center for Ethics, who talks about a decision-making experiment that studied dishonest behavior. Kouchaki says that people are more likely to be dishonest in the afternoon because fatigue can lead to loss of self-control and moral disengagement. Topics include self-interest, cognitive depletion, and limitation of moral failure opportunities.
