It is difficult to construct validation questions that are obscure enough to avoid recognition. People are not stupid.
That's nonsensical. A test is supposed to be taken on good faith. How exactly do you plan to make a test that gives the right results when someone gives the wrong answers ?It absolutely does. If someone is able to make the test spit out a result that matches their preconceived notion of their political beliefs then it isn't a real test at all, more like a game.
That's one method. But to really eliminate it you need multiple tactics. And to be fair, I think some people are too smart to eliminate it with 100% certainty.
I'm more on the integrity of the final data side but I have worked on questionnaire design and implementation. But lately mostly just telling people what to do.![]()

I cannot stop now
Do you, combined with high speed exposure, also use discarding tactics ? allow people to skip for example 20% of the questions, and analyse the skipped ones as well ?
and ofc measure time per question, skipped question as well.
Sometimes it's not conscious.
Maybe our fellow's test re-taking was him, issue by issue, deciding to figure out what he could reconsider to be what he believed in while continuing to be... I guess... what he also believed in.
All the right wing folks didn’t come and register themselves, is the problem. @Manfred Belheim where would you put yourself in this list?
But you guessing or asserting or anything is waaaaay more fun.No idea. I'm not familiar with the political leanings of most people on here to be honest, the handful of radical communists aside. I posted my political compass score though, so go with that. It's not going to be any less accurate than me just guessing.
