“…In contrast, Paulhus (1991bPaulhus ( , 1998) developed a two-dimensional measure-the Balanced Inventory of Desirable Responding (BIDR)-based on his concept of the two dimensions of SDR, namely IM and SDE. This approach is widely accepted in the current research on SDR (e.g., Asgeirsdottir, Vésteinsdóttir, & Thorsdottir, 2016;Hart et al 2015;Stöber 2001;Wiggins, 2003). Short measures were derived from the full scales measuring either a unidimensional or a bi-dimensional SDR concept.…”

The Social Desirability-Gamma Short Scale-the English-language adaptation of the Kurzskala Soziale Erwünschtheit-Gamma (KSE-G)-measures two aspects of the Gamma factor of socially desirable responding (SDR): exaggerating positive qualities (PQ+) and minimizing negative qualities (NQ−). The items of the German-language source version were translated into English using the TRAPD approach. Our empirical validation shows that the reliability and validity coefficients of the English adaptation are comparable to those of the German source instrument. Moreover, the results of measurement invariance testing suggest metric measurement invariance of the scale for the United Kingdom and Germany, thus implying comparability of correlations based on the latent factors across the two countries.

“…Using the Multidimensional Item Response Theory (MIRT) based Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) (also known as Confirmatory Item Analysis -CIA; Chalmers, 2012), conducted in "mirt" R package (Chalmers, 2012), we compared these five models: 1) Onefactor model (model conceived logically). 2) Self-Deceptive Enhancement (SDE) and Impression Management (IM) as separate factors (Asgeirsdottir et al, 2016;Bobbio & Manganelli, 2011;Hart et al, 2015;Li & Bagger, 2006;Paulhus, 1984). 3) Self-Deception-Enhancement (SD-E), Self-Deception-Denial (SD-D), Impression Management-Enhancement (IM-E), and Impression Management-Denial (IM-D) as separate factors (Li & Li, 2008;Paulhus & Trapnell, 2009).…”

“…BIDR-6 (Paulhus, 1991(Paulhus, , 1994Paulhus & Reid, 1991) is one of the most famous SDR questionnaires (Li & Bagger, 2006), typically thought of as having two dimensions (Asgeirsdottir, Vésteinsdóttir, & Thorsdottir, 2016;Bobbio & Manganelli, 2011;Hart, Ritchie, Hepper, & Gebauer, 2015;Li & Bagger, 2006;Paulhus, 1984): the Self-Deceptive Enhancement (SDE) and the Impression Management (IM). However, three factors have also been proposed (Kroner & Weekes, 1996;Paulhus & Reid, 1991), with Paulhus and Reid (1991) observing the self-deceptive content of BIDR-6 splitting into the enhancement (the claiming of positive attributes) and denial (the repudiation of negative attributes) facets.…”

“…The primary framework for the analysis will be an Item Response Theory (IRT), which allows us to study how underlying latent traits interact with item characteristics, such as difficulty and discrimination (Chalmers, 2012). This useful approach has been only sporadically used with the BIDR-6 (e.g., Asgeirsdottir et al, 2016;Cervellione, Lee, & Bonanno, 2008). Most recently, Asgeirsdottir and colleagues (2016) used IRT to shorten the BIDR-6, by retaining only the best 24 items.…”

The goals of this research were to evaluate the Bosnian-Croatian-Serbian (BCS) translation of the BIDR-6 scale, develop its short form, and to present its initial convergent/discriminative validation. The sample included 827 participants. MIRT CFA analysis revealed that fourfactor model (containing 32/40 items) fits the data best, with Self-Deceptive Enhancement (SDE) and Impression Management (IM) both splitting into the denial (SD-D and IM-D) and enhancement (SD-E and IM-E) factors. Fit and item properties were generally mediocre. SD-D and IM-E subscales were the strongest sources of misfit, thus SD-E and IM-D subscales were retained in the short form, which had good fit and replicated almost all main patterns of associations with other variables of interest (e.g., HEXACO personality traits) typically reported for the full SDE and IM scales in other research. Thus, 17-item BIDR-6 short form, containing only SD-E and IM-D subscales, is recommended for use in the BCS speaking area.

También, se ha registrado el uso de modelos politómicos (Asgeirsdottir, Vésteinsdóttir & Thorsdottir, 2016;Vispoel & Kim, 2014) en el Inventario Balanceado de Respuesta Deseable de Paulhus (1988).…”

Se aplicó el Modelo de Crédito Parcial (MCP) de la Teoría de Respuesta al Ítem al análisis de ítems de la adaptación española escala Distorsión del Big Five Questionnaire. Esta escala evalúa la tendencia de los individuos a ofrecer un perfil distorsionado. Participaron 1592 adultos de población general (55% sexo femenino). El análisis de los datos se realizó con Winsteps. El ajuste del MCP fue adecuado para todos los ítems; no obstante, un porcentaje considerable de evaluados no presentó un patrón de respuestas acorde a las expectativas del modelo. Cinco ítems presentaron inversiones en el orden esperable para los valores estimados de parámetros de umbral. Los resultados revelaron las debilidades que presenta la escala y orientan sobre posibles modificaciones futuras.
