Can candidates manipulate the results from psychometric tests?
No Psychometric tests such as the Saville and Holdsworth OPQ contain checks and balances that assess the extent to which an individual is likely to answer in an overly positive way. The candidate feedback process is also the opportunity to make sure the candidate can provide examples of when they have behaved in ways in which they have described in the questionnaire and to clarify that the results from the psychometric tests are valid.
