The relations between deception, narcissism and self-assessed lie- and truth-related abilities.

Seventy undergraduate students completed the Narcissistic Personality Inventory and the Lie- and Truth Ability Assessment Scale.

Participants were asked to allocate points to the other student bearing in mind that the transaction will be completed only if the other party accepts their offer.
