"I have never lied" "I have never yelled at anyone" "I have never raised my voice". the word "never" are the questions testing your truthfulness. Typically questions involving absolute certainty e.g. If you have a psych interview the interviewer will ask you about it and the correct response is something like "I have in the past and I know it's wrong so it's not something I would do in the future". Everyone has as much as reddit would like to pretend not otherwise. The first question that I can think of that clearly demonstrates this is "I have never told a joke about a women or minority" True/False. Your actual personality is less important than correctly answering certain questions. Secondly, you're spot on that the tests are designed to catch liars. I would wager that the majority of people have thought about suicide, but that question is more or less intended for people who have seriously consider it or thought planned it out. To think that you can accurately predict someone's personality and the way they act from a written test is beyond stupidity considering it's often easy to spot the questions that require lying.

WOW, you are sooooooo much smarter than ALL those agencies who use the MMPI, you should start a business screening applicants. Funny thing was that at the time she was a sgt in the Army. She failed the MMPI and the shrink took about thirty seconds to look at the results to rule that she was totally unsuited for a para military career like law enforcement. My ex wife once tried to get hired by a sherriffs department. Its a stupid weed out test that has little to no meaning in real world sense. Anyone who takes five minutes researching the test can figure out which questions are the "rigged" questions and can thus fool the test. The braniacs who made the test figure someone trying to fool the test will say no because everyone has bad thoughts now and then. For example "Some times I have bad thoughts" - yes or no. Well all it takes is a little common sense to figure out how. The test is supposedly "rigged" to detect people who are trying to fool it. The first time I took it I literally started laughing at how assanine it seemed and now I just detest it. Between college, testing for various agencies, and my shooting I've taken this test at least seven times now. I think this test is the biggest joke of anything that happens in hiring.
