Abstract:

Employing the scenario approach, this study attempts to investigate the trust of primary school children aged from 7 to 12 for different types of lies made by different lying subjects. It is found that: (1) The trust of children in prosocial lies shows a trend of first rising and then decreasing with the increase of age, and the level of children's trust in prosocial lies gradually increases from 7 to 9 years old, while it gradually decline during the period of 9 to 12 years old; (2) the children aged from 9 to 12 significantly have more trust in altruistic lies than that in reciprocal lies and lies that harm to the third party; (3) children aged from 8 to 12 have more trust in teachers’ reciprocal lies and than their companions. The results of the study can help to clarify how children perceive different types of prosocial lies and provide a theoretical basis for studying the development of children's interpersonal trust.

Key words: prosocial lies, trust, children
