Truthfulness Scales

Truthfulness Scales identify denial and faking. Offender denial has been linked to lack of treatment progress (Murphy & Baxter, 1997), increased treatment dropout (Daly & Peloski, 2000) and increased recidivism (Grann & Wedin, 2002).

Shoplifting Inventory


The Shoplifting Inventory (SI) is often used when deciding between diversion programs, levels of supervision (probation or jail), and treatment or counseling alternatives. Consequently, court referred evaluators, psychologists, mental health professionals, diversion personnel, probation officers and corrections staff use the Shoplifting Inventory (SI).

The Shoplifting Inventory (SI) is a 141-item self-report test that takes on average 25 to 30 minutes to complete. It has 7 scales (measures): 1. Truthfulness Scale, 2. Shoplifting Scale, 3. Impulsiveness Scale, 4. Peer Pressure Scale, 5. Alcohol Scale, 6. Drug Scale, and 7. Self-Esteem Scale. Research has linked these 7 areas of inquiry to shoplifting.

The Shoplifting Inventory (SI) can be administered two different ways: On Behavior Data Systems (BDS) diskette or USB flash drives (www.bdsltd.com), or over BDS's internet testing platform www.online-testing.com.

Regardless of how Shoplifting Inventory (SI) tests are administered (diskettes, USB flash drives, or over the internet) the most popular way to test remains "paper-pencil testing". Test booklets and answer sheets are provided free. And our internet testing program allows users to download or print SI tests with their answer sheets and then photocopy them for future individual or group testing.
