A sample of 516 participants responded to the Balanced Inventory of Desirable Responding (BIDR) under answer honest and instructed faking conditions in a within-subjects design. We analyze these data with a novel application of trifactor modeling that models the two substantive factors measured by the BIDR—self-deceptive enhancement (SDE) and impression management (IM), condition-related common factors, and item-specific factors. The model permits examination of invariance and change within subjects across conditions. Participants were able to significantly increase their SDE and IM in the instructed faking condition relative to the honest response condition. Mixture modeling confirmed the existence of a theoretical two-class solution comprised of approximately two thirds of “compliers” and one third of “noncompliers.” Factor scores had good determinacy and correlations with observed scores were near unity for continuous scoring, supporting observed score interpretations of BIDR scales in high-stakes settings. Correlations were somewhat lower for the dichotomous scoring protocol. Overall, results show that the BIDR scales function similarly as measures of socially desirable functioning in low- and high-stakes conditions. We discuss conditions under which we expect these results will and will not generalize to other validity scales.

在受试者内设计中，516 名参与者的样本在诚实回答和指示伪造条件下对理想反应平衡清单 (BIDR) 做出了回应。我们使用三因素建模的新应用来分析这些数据，该建模对 BIDR 测量的两个实质性因素进行建模——自我欺骗增强 (SDE) 和印象管理 (IM)、条件相关的共同因素和项目特定因素。该模型允许检查受试者在不同条件下的不变性和变化。相对于诚实响应条件，参与者能够在指示的伪造条件下显着增加他们的 SDE 和 IM。混合模型证实了理论上的两类解决方案的存在，该解决方案由大约三分之二的“遵从者”和三分之一的“不遵从者”组成。” 因子分数具有良好的确定性，并且与观察分数的相关性对于连续评分而言接近统一，支持在高风险设置中对 BIDR 量表的观察分数解释。二分法评分方案的相关性略低。总体而言，结果表明，BIDR 量表的功能类似于衡量低风险和高风险条件下社会理想功能的指标。我们讨论了我们期望这些结果将不会推广到其他有效性量表的条件。结果表明，BIDR 量表的功能类似于在低风险和高风险条件下衡量社会理想功能的指标。我们讨论了我们期望这些结果将不会推广到其他有效性量表的条件。结果表明，BIDR 量表的功能类似于在低风险和高风险条件下衡量社会理想功能的指标。我们讨论了我们期望这些结果将不会推广到其他有效性量表的条件。
