Abstract

Previous studies suggest that there are individual differences that affect the way that people fake their responses on personality measures to varying degrees. These factors should be taken into account to obtain more accurate information regarding faking behavior. This study demonstrated an analysis technique that can accommodate individual differences in an experimentally induced faking study. This mixed-design experiment used two randomized groups (honest vs. faking condition), who each completed a five-factor personality measure twice. This study analyzed data using the generalized ANCOVA (g-ANCOVA) as an alternative to the traditional ANCOVA, since the g-ANCOVA can accommodate both individual differences in prior manipulation (covariates) and interaction, estimating the effects of inducement to fake. We also demonstrated the use of EffectLite, a program for the univariate and multivariate analysis of unconditional, conditional, and average mean differences between groups, and which supported the present study by providing analysis using g-ANCOVA.

应用广义协方差分析适应个体差异:作假对人格测验的影响研究

先前的研究表明，个体差异会在不同程度上影响人们对性格测试的反应。这些因素应该被考虑进去，以获得关于作假行为的更准确的信息。本研究展示了一种分析技术，可以在实验诱导的伪造研究中适应个体差异。这个混合设计实验使用了两个随机组(诚实组和伪装组)，每个人都完成了两次五因素人格测试。本研究使用广义ANCOVA (g-ANCOVA)作为传统ANCOVA的替代方法来分析数据，因为g-ANCOVA可以容纳先前操作(协变量)和相互作用的个体差异，从而估计诱导伪造的影响。我们还演示了EffectLite的使用，该程序用于组间无条件、条件和平均平均差异的单变量和多变量分析，并通过使用g-ANCOVA提供分析来支持本研究。

期刊介绍： The Anuario de Psicología, one of Spain"s most important general psychology journals, is published by the Faculty of Psychology of the University of Barcelona. It appears three times a year. The Anuario combines continuity with the past with a strong commitment to the present and the future. The journal is broad-ranging, interdisciplinary, and innovative. The Anuario publishes research reports and applied studies in all fields of psychology. We also accept theorical, epistemological studies, organize dossiers on topical themes, and hold debates on controversial subjects deriving from a central article.
