“…Participant's admissions of their own past involvement in CWB were recorded using a Hebrew form of Bennett and Robinson's (2000) 19-item scale of workplace deviance, which measures a variety of organizational and interpersonal CWBs (Fine, Nevo, & Hemi, 2012). Participants rated the frequency of their past behaviors on a scale from 1 (never) to 7 (daily).…”

Conditional reasoning tests (CRT) were proposed as an innovative approach to implicitly measure the rationalizations toward counterproductive work behaviors (CWB) often associated with overt integrity tests. The authors first set out to map a typology of justification mechanisms for general CWB, and to then validate a new integrity‐based CRT in both honest and faking testing conditions. Unfortunately, while demonstrating encouraging construct and criterion validity in the honest testing condition, the test was less resistant to faking than originally anticipated, and ceased to be valid in the faking condition. Overall, the results provide theoretical insight toward understanding how employees justify CWB, but raise concerns regarding the potential operational limitations of at least some CRTs.

“…However, no research was found studying the validity of integrity tests for predicting CWB beyond overall assessment ratings, such in the case of assessment centres or OSCs. Finally, while most of the primary samples in the literature were derived from North America and Western Europe, recent studies have found comparable validity levels for overt integrity testing in the Middle East as well (e.g., Fine, Horowitz, Weigler, & Basis, ; Fine, Nevo, & Hemi, ). Still, to our knowledge, none of the aforementioned studies measured overt integrity in military samples.…”

While a great deal of research has been carried out on counterproductive work behaviours and integrity testing in civilian organizations, far less is known about these two areas in military settings. The present study developed a military‐oriented integrity test that successfully predicted future disciplinary infractions among a sample of 467 officer training school candidates (ρ = .26), while also discriminating between that sample and a comparable sample of soldiers serving time in military prisons (d = 2.24). In addition to its unique military setting, this study contributes to the integrity test literature by: (1) adopting both individual‐ and group‐level validity paradigms; (2) using a sample of actual job applicants; (3) measuring a reliable objective criterion in a predictive design; and (4) including comparative measures of cognitive ability, personality, and overall assessment centre ratings. Practitioner points Military settings may uniquely facilitate the reliable and objective measurement of counterproductive work behaviours. Integrity testing may be a valid and incremental predictor of counterproductive behaviours in military settings.
