Interview porkies

Adrian Furnham

A chapter in Head & Heart Management, 2008, pp 95-97 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract A common objection to the use of personality or motivational tests in selection is that people fake the results. They dissimulate, attempt impression management or provide empirically non-veridical, socially desirable responses. In short, they tell porkies. Maybe.
