Oxytocin makes people trusting, but not gullible, study suggests -
Science Daily, 8/24/10 - "Oxytocin (OT) is a hormone
that plays an important role in social behavior—it has even been nicknamed
“the love hormone” and “liquid trust.” Increased levels of OT have been
associated with greater caring, generosity, and trust ... volunteers who
received the OT nasal spray were more trusting of the computer and the
reliable partners—that is, they offered more money to the computer and the
reliable partner than did volunteers who received the placebo nasal spray.
However, OT did not have an effect when it came to sharing with a seemingly
unreliable partner—the volunteers were not generous towards a potentially
unreliable partner, regardless of which nasal spray they received. ... These
findings suggest that OT fosters trust, but not gullibility: OT may make
individuals more trusting, but only in certain situations"
