A. We have done so in the past on a client-to-client basis. Please write to us for such a request and we would be glad to work out a solution for you.

Q. What if a person takes a test in a socially desirable manner or manipulates or fakes the responses?

A. Utmost care has been taken care of the social desirability bias at the stage of the item construction itself. Only such items have been included in the final forms of the tests where, though the manipulation of response may seem obvious, but the scoring in such cases cannot be predicted. Alternatively, in few tests where the questions seem to be straightforward, we scientifically figure out if the person has randomly responded or manipulated the responses.

Q. Can we do benchmarking for an organization for a specific role?

A. It is possible to do so for different job roles for your organization. We follow a scientifically valid benchmarking process. Please write to us and we would be glad to assist.
