Hypocrisy is the contrivance of a false appearance of virtue or goodness while concealing real character traits or inclinations, especially with respect to religious and moral beliefs; hence, in a general sense, hypocrisy may involve dissimulation, pretense, or a sham.

Hypocrisy is the practice of engaging in the same behavior or activity for which one criticizes another. In moral psychology, it is the failure to follow one's own expressed moral rules and principles.[cite note]1
They identified four forms of hypocrisy that should emerge in perceptions of self and others’ hypocrisy:

The difference between public and personal hypocrisy

Personal hypocrite | Public hypocrite |
---|---|
The personal hypocrite preaches a certain set of values that he believes should guide people’s personal lives, but does not live by them. | The public hypocrite may or may not live by the values he preaches, but that’s beside the point. What makes for public hypocrisy is a tendency to change whatever those stated values are, not because of a genuine and publicly stated change of heart, but because of political expedience. |
Example: Ted Haggard preaches that homosexuality is a sin, but sleeps with male prostitutes. | Example: Romney He refuses to let any of his prior accomplishments or stated positions stand in the way of his quest for the Republican nomination |
