Hypothesis. Conditional on preferring the outcome from lying over the outcome from truth-telling‚ a person is sensitive to neither her own [monetary] gain from lying‚ nor how much [monetary] harm she causes the other side. Notice that aside from the preface of “preferring the outcome from lying”‚ the rest of the Hypothesis seems quite at odds with Gneezy’s Result.
