Abstract: | One aspect of scale validity, which should be a particular concern of marketing researchers, is the potential threat of contamination due to social-desirability response bias. Social-desirability bias has been consistently neglected in scale construction, evaluation and implementaltion. This paper discusses the nature of such bias, methods for identifying, testing for and/or preventing it and the methods should be implemented in consumer research. |
