The Impact of Self-Efficacy and Health Locus of Control on Performance Validity Testing

Abstract: Objective Recent research has examined potential influences to performance validity testing beyond intentional feigning. The current study sought to examine the hypothesized relationships of two psychological constructs (self-efficacy and health locus of control) with performance validity testing (PVT). Method Retrospective review of 158 mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) cases referred to an Army outpatient clinic for neurop… Show more

“…Third, Bernstein and colleagues pointed out that the studies based on more racially diverse samples endorsed lower cutoffs on the WCT. Recent reports about elevated BRFail in non-White participants substantiate this concern (Armistead-Jehle et al, 2020;Holcomb et al, 2022). At the same time, others either found no relationship between race and BRFail (Bosworth & Dodd, 2020) or reported that the relationship was instrument-specific (Braun et al, 2021;Holcomb et al, 2022).…”

“…This is especially problematic, given a recent report that non-White patients failed WCT accuracy cutoffs at a 2.5 to 3.5 times higher rate, although CR narrowed the gap to a magnitude of 1.5 to 2.0 (Holcomb et al, 2022). Future research is clearly needed to explore this potentially important confound in performance validity assessment (Armistead-Jehle et al, 2020; Braun et al, 2021; Zimmer et al, 2018). Finally, given the inherent imperfection of all criterion grouping methods, the signal detection properties of the WCT may be overestimated or underestimated by this inevitable instrumentation artifact (Bigler, 2015).…”

“…Besides factitious disorder (i.e., intentionally feigning symptoms for internal motives), various psychological constructs are suggested that might result in invalid performance (Silver, 2015). Empirical studies on this topic, however, are limited and focused, for example, on “diagnosis threat” (for a critical review, see Niesten, Merckelbach, Dandachi-FitzGerald, & Jelicic, 2020), perceived injustice (Iverson, Terry, Karr, Panenka, & Silverberg, 2018), and the health locus of control and self-efficacy (Armistead-Jehle, Lippa, & Grills, 2020). Preferably, these constructs are measured independently (of self-reporting) and at least using a check on the validity of self-reported measures.…”

“…Preferably, these constructs are measured independently (of self-reporting) and at least using a check on the validity of self-reported measures. For example, Armistead-Jehle et al (2020) omitted subjects with noncredible symptom reports, and found no relationship between PVT failure and the self-reported health locus of control and self-efficacy. However, when reanalyzing their data including subjects who failed symptom validity measures, a trend was observed between PVT failure and reporting a lower internal locus of control and higher inefficacy.…”

“…Many studies have reported that people with higher beliefs in IHLC formed their self-confidence and SE in monitoring their own health and sought health advice from available information sources, i.e. websites or applications (Abredari et al, 2015 ; Afsahi & Kachooei, 2020 ; Armistead-Jehle et al, 2020 ; Bennett et al, 2017 ; Náfrádi et al, 2017 ). Among the fisherman divers in this study, the beliefs in both EHLC and IHLC and the levels of regular diving practices were significant factors associated with the occurrence of DCS in multivariable analysis.…”
