Abstract: | Comments on "Deception in psychological research" by J. Seeman (see record 1970-07542-001). Certainly, a number of legitimate arguments exist for the reduction and/or elimination of deception in psychological experimentation. However, employed by an ethical scientist, the use of deceit in psychological experimentation can meaningfully contribute to the accumulation of "wisdom" Seeman cherishes so.
