In the study by Heine and colleagues, the presence of a mirror influenced Canadian and Japanese students differently when it came to cheating. Canadian students were less likely to cheat in front of a mirror, reflecting a heightened self-awareness or social conformity to ethical standards when they could see themselves. Japanese students, however, were equally likely to cheat regardless of the mirror's presence, suggesting that their cheating behavior was not influenced by increased self-awareness in the same way. This difference highlights cultural variations in how self-awareness affects ethical behavior.
