The research work conducted by Mcmillen and Austin in the year 1971, included  college students as participants of the research. In this process they are asked to perform a small test of intelligence. One portion of them was asked to cheat and lie and the rest were left not to cheat.

After finishing the test, the participants were asked to help the administrator to conduct the next round of test for other slot of participants. It was seen that the students who did not lie or cheat, helped them in their work for about 2 minutes. But students, who did lie, stayed and helped for 53 minutes.
