Measures of several personality variables were obtained in a repeated measures design employing honest, incentive, and instructed-faking conditions. Application of a structural equation model found faking propensity and faking ability latent variables to be uncorrelated. Faking propensity was related to emotional stability. Faking ability was related to cognitive ability.

This study explored the relationship between rater age and importance ratings. In this study, 4,494 participants completed a multisource feedback measure. Younger raters placed more importance on the Communication and Self-Management factors, but older raters placed more importance on the Thinking factor. Practical and theoretical implications are discussed.

Proposals that distal goals frame proximal goal processes have gained little research attention. We examined effects of distal goal content on the commitment to and difficulty of proximal goals. Goal orientation and career goal content predicted proximal goal difficulty and commitment; however, framing effects became weaker over time.

Configural, metric, and scalar measurement invariances were found between students and employees on a measure assessing the 2 x 2 framework of achievement goals. A latent means analysis indicated that employees reported higher levels of mastery-approach and lower levels of performance-approach, performance-avoidance, and mastery-avoidance goals than students.

This study investigated the mediating role of self-efficacy in the interaction of causal attributions and feedback on goal revision. A significant interaction was observed between attributions and feedback on goal revision, a relationship explained both conceptually and empirically by the intervening effects of self-efficacy. Research and practice implications are discussed.

Considering climate as the day-to-day establishment of contingencies for sexual harassment within organizations suggests that, via its similarity to aspects of secondary appraisal, it may mediate harassmentoutcomes relationships. We investigate this question using a longitudinal sample and determine that climate should not be limited to its already substantiated antecedent role.

A meta-analysis revealed that both unstructured (d = .59) and structured interviews (d  = .23) were affected by sources of bias such as interviewee race, sex, pregnancy, and use of nonverbal cues. Though both interview types were affected, unstructured interviews were significantly more susceptible to bias than were structured interviews.

69-22. On the Use of Partial Covariances in Structural Equation Modeling

The use of control variables is more common in regression than in structural equation modeling (SEM). There are theoretical and methodological reasons for this divide. Two simulations were conducted to assess the effects of using partial covariances in SEM. Results indicate structural equation models can be simplified under certain conditions.

69-23. Evaluation of the SAMD-z Statistic for Detecting Outliers in Meta-Analysis

Due to the potential for bias in the SAMD statistic for determining outliers in correlational meta-analyses, an alternate statistic, the SAMD-z, was developed and evaluated. Results of Monte Carlo simulations indicated that under identical situations the SAMD-z statistic was more accurate than the SAMD for identifying outlier studies.

69-24. Testing Invariance in Risk Taking: English- and French-Speaking Samples.

We present the results of 2 studies conducted in order to develop a French version of the Domain-Specific Risk-Taking (DOSPERT) Scale (Weber, Blais, & Betz, 2002). We report evidence for the invariance (i.e., English- vs. French-speaking participants) of the instruments used, and we discuss the implications of our findings.

69-25. Applying Meta-Analysis to Adverse Impact Assessment: A Monte Carlo Simulation

Adverse impact analysis is often based on small sample data, which is subject to considerable sampling error. Meta-analysis can be applied to adverse impact analysis to provide more precise conclusions. Simulation research was used to evaluate a method for meta-analyzing the adverse impact ratio.

69-26. Use of Item Response Theory Methods for Establishing Measurement Invariance

The Likelihood Ratio (LR) test and differential functioning of items and tests (DFIT) methodology were compared in their sensitivity to detecting differential item functioning (DIF) in a 21-item leadership development measure. Results demonstrated that the LR test was much more sensitive to identifying existing DIF than was DFIT.

69-27. Number of Factors Decision: Parallel Analysis Is Not the Panacea

Parallel analysis (PA) has recently been touted as the most accurate method to decide number of factors to retain in exploratory factor analysis. We argue conceptually that PA does not solve the factor retention problem and demonstrate empirically that exclusive reliance on PA could lead to less than optimal decisions.

A meta-analysis of the relationship between study skills, study habits, and study attitudes and college academic performance (N = 72,043, k = 342) is presented. Study motivation and study skills exhibit the strongest relationship with GPA and grades. Significant variation in the validity of specific inventories is illustrated and discussed.
