Methodological considerations for developing and evaluating response bias indicators.

In the near-100 years of their existence, response bias indicators have undergone significant advancements in design, as have efforts at examining their validity. However, opportunities remain for greater sophistication in the development and study of these indicators. We discuss important definitional issues pertaining to response bias before turning to a review of common methods used in this area of research followed by discussion of innovations that could further advance response bias investigation. Specifically, we focus on considerations for conducting research on the need for, evaluation, and design of response bias indicators. We review established and innovative research approaches and how they can be used to further this line of work. Throughout, we identify areas in need of additional study as we work to advance knowledge about the impact of invalid responding and the utility of the indicators available to detect it.
