Rationalizations (Bandura 1999)
  • Moral justification (It would have hurt her more
    if I told the truth)
  • Euphemistic labelling (I am flexible with the
    truth)
  • Advantageous comparison (This little lie is
    better than people who steal from their boss)
  • Displacement of responsibility (He pushed me into
    a corner I had to lie)
  • Diffusion of responsibility (We all decided
    together that this was the right thing to do)
  • Disregard or distortion of consequences (A little
    lie never hurt anybody)
  • Dehumanization (Hes a worm he doesnt deserve
    the truth)
  • Attribution of blame (He left me no choice, I had
    to lie)

Ethics It is the domain of obedience to the
unenforceable. That obedience is the obedience of
a man to that which he cannot be forced to obey.
He is the forcer of the law upon himself
  • Lord Moulton 1924 (in Kidder 2003)
