  • People in the second group -- those who didn't have to physically press a button to get the answers -- were much more likely to cheat
  • orcing people to make an active, moral decision -- a 'yes' or 'no' to donating, for example -- is going to be much more effective than allowing them to passively skip over a request
  •  
    Many people say they wouldn't cheat on a test, lie on a job application or refuse to help a person in need. But what if the test answers fell into your lap and cheating didn't require any work on your part? If you didn't have to face the person who needed your help and refuse them?

Case File - Ed Gein - 0 views

  • He enlisted the help of an old friend named Gus.  Gus was a weird loner too, and quite definitely odd - he went to the asylum a few years later.  Gus was Ed Gein’s trusted buddy, and agreed to assist Ed in opening a grave to secure a corpse for ‘medical experiments’.  Gus helped dig the graves.
  • Over the next ten years Ed did the same, checked the newspaper for fresh bodies, always visiting the graveyard at the time of a full moon, got the whole female corpse or just the parts he wanted, filled in the grave and took his winnings home.
  • His experiments with the dead bodies was bizarre.  He would construct objects from the bones and skin and would store the organs in the fridge to eat later.  He also committed acts of necrophilia on the bodies.  He even dug up his own mothers corpse.

  • He shot her in the head with his 32-caliber revolver, placed her body in his pickup truck, and took her back to his shed.
  • There may have been other victims in the years that followed, but nothing definite is known about Gein’s murderous activities until that day on 16 November, 1957, when he shot and killed Bernice Worden in her hardware store on Plainfield’s Main Street.  He used a .22 rifle
  • The sheriff halted him, and asked him to get into the police car for questioning.  Gein told of how he thought someone had tried to frame him for Bernice Worden’s death.  Sheriff Schley took Ed Gein into custody, Schley had not mentioned Bernice Worden’s death.
