The current study investigated whether 5-6-year-old Korean children consider situational factors when comprehending a protagonist’s lie- and truth-telling. The participants answered a series of questions after listening to stories in which the protagonist lied or told the truth during a transgression (e.g., stealing a friend’s crayon) or a polite interaction (e.g., receiving a disappointing gift). Children more positively evaluated lying in the politeness contexts than in the transgression contexts. They also attributed more positive emotions to the protagonists who told the truth in the transgression contexts than those who told the truth in the politeness contexts. The results demonstrate that preschoolers understand that the moral value and emotional consequences of lying and truth-telling can be affected by contextual factors.
