Preferred term

integrity testing  

Definition

  • Integrity testing refers to the task of assessing an individual's integrity, usually within a preemployment assessment situation, for the purposes of determining whether that person might be considered suitable for employment in a specific job role. Until recently, integrity was viewed as synonymous with the term honesty, and thus integrity testing originally referred to the assessment of an individual's honesty, an attribute defining someone as being sincere and genuine and not prone to stealing, lying, or cheating.
