A commentary on
Exposure to Parenting by Lying in Childhood: Associations with Negative Outcomes in Adulthood
by Santos, R. M., Zanette, S., Kwok, S. M., Heyman, G. D., and Lee, K. (2017). Front. Psychol. 8:1240. doi: 10.3389/fpsyg.2017.01240
In the original article, there were mistakes in Figures 2–4 as published. The psychosocial maladjustment label in Figures 3, 4 were incorrect. The corrected Figures appear below. Additionally, the authors have included the standardized beta coefficients in all three of the mediation figures.

In the original article, the standardized Beta value was reported in the text where the unstandardized b value should have been reported.
A correction has been made to the Results section, Parenting by Lying and the Frequency of Lying to Parents, paragraph one:
Parenting by Lying and the Frequency of Lying to Parents
We conducted a simple linear regression to determine whether parenting by lying is associated with the frequency of lying to parents. Parenting by lying was entered as the predictor variable and lying to parents served as the dependent variable. Parenting by lying significantly predicted lying to parents, explaining 8% of the total variance, ΔR2 = 0.08, ΔF(1, 48) = 4.33, p = 0.043. Thus, as exposure to parenting by lying in childhood increased, the frequency of lying to parents during adulthood also increased, bparent lying = 1.86, SE = 0.89, t(49) = 2.08, p = 0.043, 95% CI [0.06, 3.65], rpart = 0.29.
The authors apologize for these errors and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way.
