Dan Ariely

We talked a little about Dan Ariely and his ideas of different people's morals when it comes to cheating and how it depended how much was at stake as to whether people felt comfortable cheating. On doing some further research, I found this video, in which he perfectly sums up his ideas of different morals.

The above link is a link to his blog and all of his ideas on helping people with their questions and some of his views on morality. He states in his blog that it was when he was in hospital, recovering from some nasty injuries he sustained while involved in an explosion that he "became engrossed with the idea that we repeatedly and predictably make the wrong decisions in many aspects of our lives and that research could help change some of these patterns."

On this blog you will see all of the videos he has uploaded from his talks and links to all of his books, such as, "The Honest Truth About Dishonesty" and "The Upside of Irrationality"

Here is the link to his blog post "Social Power and Morality", which I found really interesting to read and see how he views that when given more power, you seem to have less morals as you feel you are entitled to more and that you deserve to have special treatment, even if you have done nothing to gain that power.
