本研究以两名长途半挂车司机(n=147和n=139)为被试，检验了两种反应扭曲(自欺性和印象管理)是否影响大五人格维度中的尽责性和情绪稳定性两个维度的预测效度。根据假设，责任心(Rho=-.26和-.26)和情绪稳定性(Rho=-.23和-.21)是两个样本中自愿离职的有效预测因子。同样，正如假设的那样，尽职尽责是两个样本中绩效监督评级的有效预测因子(Rho=0.41和0.39)。虽然不是假设，但情绪稳定性也与主管对绩效的评分显著相关(Rho=0.23和0.27)。结构方程模型的结果表明，申请者在两个人格维度上的得分都发生了扭曲，这种扭曲是通过自我欺骗和印象管理发生的；然而，这两种类型的扭曲都不会削弱这两种人格结构的预测效度。
This study tests whether 2 types of response distortion (self-deception and impression management) affect the predictive validity of 2 of the ''Big 5'' personality dimensions, conscientiousness and emotional stability, in 2 applicant samples of long-haul semitruck drivers (n = 147 and n = 139). As hypothesized, conscientiousness (rho = -.26 and -.26) and emotional stability (rho = -.23 and -.21) were valid predictors of voluntary turnover in the 2 samples. Also as hypothesized, conscientiousness was a valid predictor of supervisory ratings of performance (rho = .41 and .39) in the 2 samples. Although not hypothesized, emotional stability was also significantly related to supervisor ratings of performance (rho = .23 and .27). Results from structural equations modeling indicated that applicants did distort their scores on both personality dimensions and the distortion occurred both through self-deception and impression management; however, neither type of distortion attenuated the predictive validities of either personality construct.
