Which statement best describes the overall item type mix in the Griffin Hill Integrity Test?

• A. A combination of multiple-choice items, attitude scales, and situational scenarios
• B. Only true/false questions
• C. Only short answer essays
• D. Only performance-based tasks

Answer: (A)

A mix of item formats is used to capture honesty and ethical judgment from multiple angles. The Griffin Hill Integrity Test combines multiple-choice items for efficient scoring, attitude scales to gauge dispositions toward integrity, and situational scenarios that probe how someone would respond in real ethical dilemmas. This combination improves reliability and reduces faking because it blends self-report with judgment in context. The other options are too narrow: true/false lacks nuance, short-answer essays are uncommon and hard to score consistently, and performance-based tasks are more resource-intensive and not typical for a broad integrity screen.
