There have been some studies:

I found these with by searching scholar.google.com with

"men women honesty study"

Scholar.google.com gets you more directly to the academic sources---
without the filters of the popular press.

My first impression was that most of the academic studies of honesty
were based on questions about academic cheating and sex.  I guess
that's a reflection of the easily available study populations
at the universities!  ;-)
