AB - The Social Desirability-Gamma
Short Scale - the English-language adaptation of the Kurzskala Soziale
Erwünschtheit-Gamma (KSE-G) - measures two aspects of the Gamma factor of
socially desirable responding (SDR): exaggerating positive qualities (PQ+) and
minimizing negative qualities (NQ−). The items of the German-language
source version were translated into English using the TRAPD approach. Our
empirical validation shows that the reliability and validity coefficients of
the English adaptation are comparable to those of the German source instrument.
Moreover, the results of measurement invariance testing suggest metric
measurement invariance of the scale for the United Kingdom and Germany, thus
implying comparability of correlations based on the latent factors across the
two countries.
