Abstract
background The objective of this paper is to examine the structure of social desirability. This variable is important in self-report questionnaires. Theoretical analyses indicate the existence of at least two dimensions of this construct, but there is no unambiguous empirical evidence for such a structure of social desirability. The present research aimed to determine the factor structure of the social desirability construct and the number of its dimensions.
