What types of honesty interventions have been tested and to what extent? We conducted a systematic literature review of single-element intervention studies designed to curtail individual-level dishonesty and classified the obtained interventions in a taxonomy that encompasses three frameworks: nudging, economic, and internal-reward. We find moral reminders that we classify as educative nudges as well as external commitments (pledges, oaths, honor codes) and priming that we classify under the internal-reward framework to be the most frequently studied interventions, whereas architectural nudges (defaults, sludge) have hardly been developed. Most importantly, we identify two areas for improvement essential for our collective ability to successfully translate and scale honesty interventions: a more thorough examination of the interventions’ underlying psychological processes and precise description of the experimental designs.

哪些类型的诚实干预已经过测试，测试到什么程度？我们对旨在减少个人层面不诚实行为的单元素干预研究进行了系统的文献回顾，并将获得的干预分类为包含三个框架的分类：轻推、经济和内部奖励。我们发现道德提醒我们归类为教育助推以及外部承诺（誓言、誓言、荣誉守则）和启动，我们在内部奖励框架下分类为最常研究的干预措施，而建筑助推（违约、污泥）几乎没有被开发。最重要的是，我们确定了两个需要改进的领域，这对于我们成功转化和扩大诚实干预的集体能力至关重要：
