I only used that as an example. But as you state in your reply, there are still technical reasons to uphold the question as valid. Also, you have lied in the past, so answering the question in the affirmative would still technically be dishonest.
I am a psychologist, and I do not subscribe to the idea that these tests are without flaws or that they should make up a major part of any decision-making process, whether that be deciding on hiring a person or diagnosing someone with depression. But they do have value as one tool in a toolbox.
I am interested in your ability to live your life in a way where you are firmly committed to never telling a lie. While I do think that allowing someone to make erroneous conclusions while I remain silent is deceptive, the idea of never verbally lying is interesting. Never even little white lies?
