Abstract:
The present study evaluated the impact of test format and instructions on success at faking a Big Five personality assessment. Participants (N=320) completed personality and impression management measures under one of two testing format (blocked or randomized) and one of three instruction types (honest, non-targeted faking in which participants behaved as if applying for any job of their choice, and targeted faking in which they were asked to behave as if applying for a single specified job). No practically-significant differences in scores were observed based upon format. Scores on all scales were significantly higher in the targeted faking condition than in the other conditions although differences between honest and non-targeted were significant for only a few scales.
Significant interactions between format and instructions were found for Conscientiousness, Openness, Emotional Stability, and Impression Management. For these scales, scores increased linearly across conditions when surveys were given in a randomized format but a marked decrease was seen between honest and non-targeted faking, followed by a sharp increase in scores from non-targeted to targeted faking, when the tests were given in blocked format. Limitations, future directions, and practical implications are discussed.
