RESEARCH PROJECT 4
THIRD ASSIGNMENT (ASSESSMENT NUMBER 15)
• For your third assignment, you will be required to write a research proposal on the topic:
Bullshitting is terrible, but lying is worse. Or isn’t it?
• Outline and synthesize previous research on bullshitting and lying and outline the possible
role of status and trustworthiness of the source.
• Derive at least one research hypothesis from your literature review that addresses the
assessment of bullshitting and lying in relation to the status and trustworthiness of the
source.
• The proposal should not exceed ten (10) pages (excluding the front page, table of
contents, and references).
How do you complete the THIRD ASSIGNMENT?
• In your third assignment, you are expected to write a research proposal to test the
insidious bullshit hypothesis
(i.e., bullshitting is evaluated less negatively than lying).
• Based on the improved literature review, state a research hypothesis that
indicates the relationship between being exposed to bullshit/lying and judgment.
• This research will be done using an experimental research design, which will be
conducted online and hosted on the research platform Qualtrics.
