Research provides tips to reduce children's lying

Getting children to speak the truth can be a struggle at times. While a lie, when discovered, is often followed by a punishment, there's a more effective way to prevent future fibbing, says new Brock-led research.

Awareness

Awareness is the state or ability to perceive, to feel, or to be conscious of events, objects or sensory patterns. In this level of consciousness, sense data can be confirmed by an observer without necessarily implying understanding. More broadly, it is the state or quality of being aware of something. In biological psychology, awareness is defined as a human's or an animal's perception and cognitive reaction to a condition or event.
