We all make promises in our daily interactions with others. On the【C1】_____hand, promises such as "I’ll return your book next week" or "I won’t tell anyone" are not heavily【C2】_____, except maybe in a【C3】_____sense.
On the other hand, some of the promises we make bind us【C4】_____and financially. By saying "I do", newly weds promise to love and【C5】_____each other no matter what happens for the rest of their lives;【C6】_____anybody makes this promise【C7】_____to break it.
But imagine making a promise when in fact, you know you would【C8】_____from not keeping it. Would you keep it anyway? Could we somehow tell in【C9】_____whether you’re going to keep it or break it?
All these questions are addressed in an exciting new study【C10】_____in Switzerland and led by Thomas Baumgartner and Urs Fischbacher.【C11】_____their findings need to be confirmed by further research, they suggest that it may indeed be possible to【C12】_____whether a person is【C13】_____to break a promise based on brain activity, well before the promise is actually broken.
The study opens up a【C14】_____of questions for future research. For example, is dishonesty in economic decision-making the same as dishonesty【C15】_____other situations, such as social, romantic or political【C16】_____? And do dishonest people equally dishonest under different circumstances?
So next time you say "I will call you" take a moment and ask yourself if you really【C17】_____it. You may be surprised to realize that you already know whether you do ... or do not. This intention, we now know, is【C18】_____in your brain activity, so if you intend to【C19】_____a promise, you might want to avoid making it in the first【C20】_____.
