Plato's account can be understood in two sections, his critical method, which prioritizes true nature over false praise, and his account of Love. This paper is divided into three sections. The first section discusses the importance of the critical spirit and explains his praise of honesty and truth. The second section describes the nature of Love as virtues of passion. In the third section, I criticize Plato for going against his virtues of passion because of his bad passions, disinterest and malice.

Integrity, honesty, and truth seeking are important virtues that most people care about and want to see promoted in society. Yet surprisingly, there has been relatively little work among scholars today aimed at helping us better understand this cluster of virtues related to truth. This volume incorporates the insights and perspectives of experts working in a variety of disciplines, including philosophy, law, communication and rhetorical studies, theology, psychology, history, and education. For each virtue, there is a conceptual chapter, an application chapter, and a developmental chapter. The resulting volume significantly deepens our knowledge about and appreciation for these central virtues.

Summary: This article investigates cross-country differences in economic growth rates from a psychological perspective. Based on social capital theory it is argued that 1) financial honesty and trust are positively correlated with each other when they are aggregated on a country level and that 2) a high level of financial honesty and trust in a given country reduces transaction costs and thus stimulates economic growth. Using data from the World-Value-Surveys in 1981 and 1990 these hypotheses are empirically confirmed. The influence of social capital (i.e., financial honesty and trust) on economic growth was robust and substantial even if a number of relevant variables like gross national product (GNP), urbanization, economic inequality or the proportion of agriculture in gross domestic product were controlled. Thus, it seems worthwhile for economic psychology to further explore the influence of psychological determinants (like trust and honesty) on macroeconomic variables like economic growth or wealth.
