Applicants’ use of faking tactics could threaten the validity of employment interviews. We examined criterion-based content analysis (CBCA), an approach used in legal contexts, as a potential indicator of interviewee faking. We also examined the moderating role of storytelling in the faking-CBCA relationship. We conducted one experimental study, with 100 interviewees receiving instructions to respond honestly versus to exaggerate/invent responses, and one mock interview study, with self-reported faking from 111 interviewees. Responses were recorded, transcribed, and coded for CBCA and storytelling. Faking was associated with CBCA when interviewees freely engaged in faking tactics, an overall CBCA indicator was used, and interviewees’ responses contained story features. Additional analyses highlight that CBCA-based assessments of faking/honesty could reach up to 63.4% accuracy.

确定应聘者在面试中的伪造

申请人使用虚假策略可能会威胁就业面试的有效性。我们研究了基于标准的内容分析（CBCA），这是一种在法律背景下使用的方法，可作为受访者伪造的潜在指标。我们还研究了在虚假的CBCA关系中讲故事的调节作用。我们进行了一项实验研究，有100名受访者接受了诚实回答与夸大/发明性回应的说明，还有一项模拟访问研究，其中有111名受访者自我报告为伪造。记录，抄录和编码回应，以进行CBCA和讲故事。假冒与CBCA相关联，是因为受访者自由地采取了假冒策略，使用了总体CBCA指标，并且受访者的回答包含故事特征。
