If you're referring to the MMPI, I'll agree it's a strange test to take, but it does have a very high degree of validity/reliability in screening psychopathy.Foot in the door for someone.

Is the validity based on truthful answers? I know there's "lie" questions designed to pick out someone BSing the test (because I flagged one, no - I wouldn't sneak into a god damn $9 movie even if I know I wouldn't get caught), but it seems like someone trying to pass the test could easily BS it.If you're referring to the MMPI, I'll agree it's a strange test to take, but it does have a very high degree of validity/reliability in screening psychopathy.
If I were hearing voices, and were trying to be a cop, I'd have the sense to say NO, I don't hear voices others can't.

I believe that is the exact purpose of the test. I was told that something like 85% of people answer the questions defensively, a.k.a. are BSing it. I believe the test is designed to find the true psychopaths/sociopaths not the people who just 'meatballs.' That's just the interpretation I got when talking to the shrink after the exam.If I were hearing voices, and were trying to be a cop, I'd have the sense to say NO, I don't hear voices others can't.
I think a few of my co-workers must have been excused from taking the testIf you're referring to the MMPI, I'll agree it's a strange test to take, but it does have a very high degree of validity/reliability in screening psychopathy.
