Research has established the Big Five personality dimensions as useful predictors of job performance, but their potential susceptibility to response sets generates employer concerns and skepticism regarding the construct validity of personality scores for employee selection.{09}The overarching purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between three individual response sets representing different types of social desirability and the Big Five personality dimensions. A two-component model of social desirability, consisting of self- and other-deception, represented the two measured response sets, while the third response set of job-applicant status was conceptualized as a naturally-occurring type of social desirability.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a Research has established the Big Five personality dimensions as useful predictors of job performance, but their potential susceptibility to response sets generates employer concerns and skepticism regarding the construct validity of personality scores for employee selection.{09}The overarching purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between three individual response sets representing different types of social desirability and the Big Five personality dimensions. A two-component model of social desirability, consisting of self- and other-deception, represented the two measured response sets, while the third response set of job-applicant status was conceptualized as a naturally-occurring type of social desirability.
520 $a From a total sample of 142 undergraduate students majoring in business, 63 participants who were actively searching for employment were classified as applicants, and 79 participants who were not actively searching for employment were classified as non-applicants. Participants completed the following instruments: a background questionnaire; the NEO Personality Inventory - Revised (NEO PI-R, Costa & McCrae, 1992); and the Balanced Inventory of Desirable Responding (BIDR, Paulhus, 1991).
520 $a The first research objective sought to understand the relationship between applicants and non-applicants with respect to the Big Five personality dimensions. A MANCOVA analysis revealed that applicants produced significantly ( p < .05) lower Neuroticism scores and higher Extraversion and Conscientiousness scores. The second research objective sought to understand the relationship between applicants and non-applicants with respect to measures of social desirability. A second MANCOVA analysis revealed no significant on the measures of social desirability. Principal findings suggest that applicants produced significantly more positive personality profiles, and that social desirability scales are not responsive to applicant testing.
520 $a The final objective was to examine the overall relationship between response sets and the Big Five personality dimensions. Principal findings included: (1) Self-Deceptive Enhancement was a significant predictor of Neuroticism (Deltar2 = .27) and Extraversion (Deltar2 = .12); (2) Impression Management was a significant predictor of Agreeableness (Deltar2 =. 13); and (3) both Impression Management (Deltar2 = .14) and Self-Deceptive Enhancement (Deltar 2 = .20) were significant predictors of Conscientiousness. Implications of these findings are discussed in relation to the construct validity of personality scores, the use of social desirability corrections, and the use of personality measures in employee selection.
