Materials and Methods: The sample was comprised of 135 subjects ( M = 26.64 SD = 1.88 years old), all of whom were graduates (having completed at least 17 years of instruction), male, and Caucasian. Finally, the impact of the speeded condition in malingering was assessed. Our hypotheses were that: the Fake-Good Speeded group would obtain a different completion time show higher RLs than the Honesty Speeded Group in the validity scales show higher T-Scores in the L-r and K-r scales and lower T-scores in the F-r and RC scales and show higher levels of tension and fatigue. We compared RLs and T-scores on the MMPI-2-RF (validity and restructured clinical scales) in four experimental groups. We explored this relationship further, aiming to add further insight into the reliability of self-report measures. d’Annunzio”, Chieti-Pescara, Chieti, Italyīackground and Purpose: Research on the relationship between response latency (RL) and faking in self-administered testing scenarios have generated contradictory findings.
