Although certain types of lies may support social relationships, other types of…

Trower, Peter – Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 1980

Unskilled patients were deficient in component behaviors and in monitoring and other process skills. Deficiencies in speech contributed to impressions of social incompetence. (Author/BEF)
