In dit artikel uit The Globe and Mail wordt onder meer een interessant onderzoek besproken van de University of North Carolina en Harvard Business School waaruit volgt dat het dragen van namaakartikelen het gedrag kan beïnvloeden. Je kunt er zelf door gaan liegen:
“Again and again, researchers found that those in the knockoff sunglasses were more prone to dishonesty and lying. In one test, subjects were asked to complete a math puzzle and grade themselves privately, knowing they’d be paid more for a higher score. Fully 70 percent of those in the fake glasses inflated their results, while 30 per cent of those in real glasses fudged.”
