In modern psychology, hypocrisy refers to the demonstrative behavior of a person in relation to people around him. From the point of view of psychologists, people with hypocritical manners behave this way because they try to justify by their behavior any of their actions committed in relation to themselves or others. For example, in secular society, a prude can preach and build himself into a highly moral person, and in a hidden entity he can be lecherous and deceitful.

Hypocrisy can manifest itself as conscious, in which case this concept becomes synonymous with hypocrisy. The use of a token is appropriate in cases where a person wears a “decency mask”, while distorting the information surrounding him in the light necessary for him. From the point of view of psychologists, this form of human behavior is a “cover, ” or in Western psychology it is a “formal lie, ” that is, behavior when a person does not want to change and eradicate certain vices in himself, but in the eyes of people around him wants to look decent or even stand out with his "noble" features.

There is also an unconscious form of hypocrisy. This form is an unconscious lie to oneself. For example, life in "pink" with flying on the clouds. With an unconscious form of hypocrisy, a person does not notice the environment in its reality and lives on with his ideals. The hypocrite meets an attempt to dissuade the hypocrite with negative and sometimes even aggression towards the opponent. From the point of view of psychologists, an unconscious hypocrisy that does not lend itself to persuasion is a mental personality disorder and should be treated with the help of various psychotherapeutic methods, and medically in specialized psychiatric clinics. It is believed that constant lying to oneself and others is a form of delusional personality disorder.
