How much have you stolen this year?

It is a question integrity testing researchers often ask: “Let’s say we know a certain amount of employees are stealing from the company. How common do you think it is they are stealing more than $10 a month?”

There has been a consistent result over the last few decades– the more people thought others were stealing, the more likely they were stealing.

So, how many paper clips from the office are we going to find in your desk at home?
