Abstract
This study examined the correlations between gullibility, impression management, self-deception, and religiosity. As expected, we found that impression management was positively correlated with religiosity. We found no correlation between gullibility and religiosity. Contrary to prior research, we found that religious people were less self-deceptive than non-believers.
