摘要

社会期望的回答会削弱自我报告问卷的有效性，特别是在高风险的情况下，人们被激励去管理他们给别人的印象。本实验考察了印象管理的语境依赖性。参与者（N = 231）完成了两次“五大清单-2”，第一次是诚实的，然后是在工作或约会环境中假装良好的指示。社会期望的回应在这两种情况下都存在，但在工作环境中比在约会环境中更明显（但不是全部）五大领域和方面。未来的研究应该调查假装行为是否在不同的情境下有所不同，不仅是在假装好的指示下，而且在高风险的情况下（例如，人事选择或在线约会）。

People “fake-good” on personality self-reports more strongly in a job context than in a dating context

Socially desirable responding can impair the validity of self-report questionnaires, especially in high-stakes situations in which people are incentivized to manage the impression they make on others. The current experiment examined the context dependency of impression management. Participants (N = 231) completed the Big Five Inventory-2 twice, first honestly and then with faking-good instructions in a job or dating context. Socially desirable responding was present in both contexts but was more pronounced in the job context than in the dating context for many (but not all) Big Five domains and facets. Future research should investigate whether faking behavior differs across contexts not only under faking-good instructions but also in high-stakes situations (e.g., personnel selection or online dating).

The subject matter includes treatments of genetic, physiological, motivational, learning, perceptual, cognitive, and social processes of both normal and abnormal kinds in human and animal subjects. Features: • Papers that present integrated sets of studies that address significant theoretical issues relating to personality. • Theoretical papers and critical reviews of current experimental and methodological interest. • Single, well-designed studies of an innovative nature. • Brief reports, including replication or null result studies of previously reported findings, or a well-designed studies addressing questions of limited scope.
