Diener and wallbom (1976) found that when research participants were instructed to stop working on a problem after a bell sounded, 71 percent continued working when left alone. how many continued to work after the bell if they were made self-aware by working in front of a mirror? a) 70 percent b) 43 percent c) 31 percent d) 7 percent

d) 7 percent

Step-by-step explanation:

Diener and Wallbom in 1976 carried out a research on the effect of self awareness on antinormative behavior. They reported on college students, who when  asked, said that cheating was morally wrong. When given a timed IQ test  and a chance to work illicitly beyond the time limit, 71% of them did so.  The puzzle problems were intentionally set such that most of them will be unsolvable, this is to ensure that success was impossible without cheating.

When they were made to be self aware by introducing a mirror during testing, this rate of those that continued to work was reduced to  only 7%.  This research centered on the differential use of morality and competence standards for behavior when in a state of self-awareness.
