Little cheaters can cost companies big dollars

 (Dis)Honesty: The Truth About Lies is a 2015 documentary directed by Yael Melamede.  Half the movie focuses on Duke University Behavioral Economist – Dr. Dan Ariely and his exploration into the field of rationalization.  The other half looks at different cheaters – from crooked NBA basketball referees to insider traders.

Since the movie was made, there has been allegations challenging some of the findings presented in the movie, but the research presented by Dr. Ariely is still considered valid.
