Sin embargo, su uso está muy extendido desde el punto de vista biológico como mecanismo de supervivencia y en el ser humano incluso desde el punto de vista de integración social. El autoengaño, considerado una manifestación suprema del uso humano de la mentira, tiene estrecha relación con la generación de optimismo y esperanza, las personas con problemas para integrar un autoengaño tienen con más frecuencia alteraciones patológicas en el estado de ánimo, sobre todo depresión. Este artículo analiza desde algunos puntos de vista ético-filosóficos las ventajas y desventajas del uso de la mentira para promover el autoengaño en pacientes con enfermedad terminal.]]></p></abstract>

Nevertheless its use is very extended from the biological point of view as mechanism of survival and in the human being, even from the point of view of social integration. Self-deception, considered a supreme manifestation of the human use of lies, is closely related to the generation of optimism and hope, people with problems to integrate self-deception have more frequently pathological alterations in mood, especially depression. The advantages and disadvantages of the use of lying to promote self-deception in patients with terminal illness are analyzed from some ethical-philosophical points of view.]]></p></abstract>
