DESCRIPTION:Organisations are increasingly turning to integrity testing in
  an attempt to meet the challenge of international fraud. But cheaters\, b
 y their very nature\, cheat\, creating a need for something a little more 
 devious when carrying out assessments. Integrity tests differ from persona
 lity tests in that there are clearly ‘right and wrong answers’. This m
 eans that a variety of strategies have to be used to deter respondents fro
 m trying to distort their results.  This session will review the various a
 pproaches to testing integrity within occupational settings as well as som
 e of the integrity traits that have been addressed and the questionnaires 
 that are available to measure them.  These include Prudentius’s theory o
 f passions and sentiments\, Hogan’s ‘the dark side’\, the rather omi
 nously named ‘dark triad’ of Machiavellianism\, Paranoia and Narcissis
 m\, and the ten personality disorders used within psychiatric diagnosis.
