This is a survey that was taken by students at Salem College. The question was asked “If you saw a stranger drop a $20 bill, would you be trusted to return it?

Here are the results:
5 students out of 7 students say that they would return the $20
While only 2 out of 7 students claimed that they would not be trusted to return the dollar.

This survey may be inaccurate since most forms of dishonesty are either aversive, or the person being dishonest would never openly admit it. Either way, I think most people could be trusted to return the $20 dollar bill simply because it’s “the right thing to do.”
