We explored how feigning impacts the Rorschach task, a typical performance test, with a preregistered meta-analysis of 21 studies (32 contrasts) comparing feigners of severe psychopathology (including experimental simulation and suspected malingering designs) to both nonclinical and clinical control groups. We investigated hypothesized Rorschach variables, controlling for the Number of Responses and adjusting for skewness when feasible. Compared with nonclinical controls, feigners simulate by increasing indicators of perception and thinking problems and exaggerating indicators of stress and distress; however, their task engagement remained similar. Relative to clinical controls, feigners provided less simplistic responses, displayed fewer thinking problems, similar perceptual difficulties, and exaggerated stress and distress indicators. We discuss three novel composites that may improve the detection of feigned severe psychopathology. These findings contribute to future research and clinical assessment in forensic contexts.","PeriodicalId":8577,"journal":{"name":"Assessment","volume":" ","pages":"10731911261462465"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2026-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148598308","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is linked to various psychopathological conditions, including depression, suicide, and schizophrenia. Consequently, the assessment of hopelessness has become a crucial element in both clinical practice and research. The Beck Hopelessness Scale (BHS) is the most extensively used instrument for measuring hopelessness and has been the focus of substantial research across diverse samples over many years. However, discussions on the factor structure of the scale continue. The present study investigated the factor structure of the BHS through a meta-analytic confirmatory factor analysis and synthesized the findings from the literature. The study included 52 samples (N = 35,628) derived from 36 studies that provided factor loadings from the exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses. The results indicated that among the models examined for the BHS, the positive-negative bifactor model demonstrated the best fit to the data. Furthermore, the measurement invariance of this model was examined across age, gender composition, language, cultural orientation, and clinical status. Measurement invariance was not supported across these groups, suggesting that the latent structure of the BHS may vary according to key demographic, linguistic, cultural, and clinical status.","PeriodicalId":8577,"journal":{"name":"Assessment","volume":" ","pages":"10731911261463416"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2026-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148534819","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

DART performance was worse in PWD than in HC, with the lowest scores observed in the semantic behavioral variant of frontotemporal dementia (sbvFTD). DART showed strong diagnostic specificity (areas under the curve (AUCs) ≥82% comparing syndromes), with the highest performance distinguishing syndromes with prominent socioemotional impairment, particularly sbvFTD. DART performance was associated with other emotion identification measures and predicted real-world socioemotional sensitivity. Poorer DART performance predominantly correlated with focal atrophy in right-sided emotion processing areas, including the insula, temporal pole, and caudate head.

The Swanson, Nolan, and Pelham Rating Scale (SNAP-IV) is widely used to assess ADHD symptoms; however, its length may limit feasibility in large-scale screening. This study applied a multi-algorithm machine-learning framework to refine the 18 core ADHD items of the SNAP-IV by identifying the most predictive items through cross-model consensus ranking while preserving balanced symptom construct representation. Data were drawn from the Taiwan National Epidemiological Study of Child Mental Disorders (410 ADHD, 3,607 controls) and an independent National Taiwan University Hospital cohort (676 ADHD, 374 controls). Across ten classifiers optimized for screening with priority on sensitivity, reduced subsets comprising 4 parent-reported and 6 teacher-reported items retained robust predictive performance across cohorts. Confirmatory factor analysis supported the structural validity of the two-factor (Inattention/Hyperactivity-Impulsivity) shortened scales, with strong latent reliability (McDonald's omega). A machine learning-derived, construct-balanced SNAP-IV short form provides an efficient and psychometrically sound tool for ADHD screening.","PeriodicalId":8577,"journal":{"name":"Assessment","volume":" ","pages":"10731911261458744"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2026-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148410168","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Exploratory factor analyses (Study 1, n = 406; Study 2, n = 316) reduced items while a confirmatory factor analysis (Study 3, n = 289) confirmed a final factor structure for POS-DEV across childhood and adolescent windows with excellent psychometric properties and construct validity.

The results of factor analyses and multiple-group confirmatory factor analysis provided empirical support for the three-dimensional structure underlying the FIQ-SF and the equivalence of this measure across gender groups of preschoolers. Results from the multidimensional graded response model revealed that the FIQ-SF items displayed adequate item-level psychometric characteristics.

Mechanical totals' predictive accuracy outperformed nodewise predictability (AUCmechanical = 0.67, SD = 0.04; AUCnodewise = 0.50, SD = 0.03; t[299] = 80.2, Cohen's d = 4.63, p < .001).
