ABSTRACT

The predictive validity of the Tailored Adaptive Personality Assessment System (TAPAS), the U.S. Army’s first computer-adaptive personality test incorporating multidimensional pairwise preference items, has been demonstrated for training performance in both the Army and Air Force. While the unique TAPAS format has been described as more resistant to applicant faking than traditional self-report personality measures, evidence regarding the magnitude of applicant score distortion on TAPAS, and how such distortion (if present) may affect reliability and validity, has been limited. To address this gap, the present study compared operational TAPAS scores of Air Force enlisted recruits (administered pre-accession to applicants) to their post-accession retest scores under honest and directed faking (“fake good”) conditions (based on re-administration of TAPAS during Basic Military Training). Data are presented on the relationship of applicant pre-accession scores to their retest scores under honest conditions (a form of test-retest reliability) and the magnitude of mean score differences in applicant, honest, and directed faking conditions is documented. Further, the validity of the TAPAS as an indicator for counterproductive work behaviors (CWB) was evaluated. Results indicate that TAPAS scores are relatively stable over time and the TAPAS methodology appears to reduce score distortion. In addition, the results suggest that the validities of the TAPAS scores as CWB correlates are comparable across honest and directed faking testing conditions and generally in line with those found for traditional Likert-type self-report Big Five measures.

量身定制的适应性人格评估系统(TAPAS)作为适得其反的工作行为的指标:比较申请人,诚实和定向造假条件下的有效性

摘要

量身定制的适应性人格评估系统(TAPAS)是美国陆军首个结合多维成对偏好项的计算机自适应性格测验的预测有效性,已被证明可用于陆军和空军的训练性能。尽管已将独特的TAPAS格式描述为比传统的自我报告人格测验更能抵制申请人的虚假行为,但有关TAPAS上申请人分数失真的程度以及这种失真(如果存在)如何影响信度和效度的证据有限。 。为了弥补这一差距,本研究将空军应征入伍的新兵(在申请人入职前进行管理)的TAPAS得分与他们在诚实和直接伪造(“伪善”)条件下(根据基本军事期间对TAPAS的重新管理)的入职后重测得分进行了比较。训练)。在诚实条件下(重新测试信度的一种形式),提供了有关申请人预录入分数与其复试分数之间关系的数据,并记录了申请人,诚实和定向伪造条件下平均分数差异的大小。此外,评估了TAPAS作为适得其反的工作行为(CWB)指标的有效性。结果表明,TAPAS分数在一段时间内相对稳定,并且TAPAS方法论似乎减少了分数失真。此外,
