Two studies were conducted to provide data on the construct validity of the Child Abuse Potential Inventory lie scale. In Study One, 187 male and female undergraduate students were administered either the Child Abuse Potential Inventory, the Marlowe-Crowne Social Desirability Scale, or the Unlikely Virtues Scale. Three instructional sets were provided: respond honestly, distort responses in a positive manner, and distort responses in a negative manner. Each scale successfully discriminated between subjects in the honest and faking good conditions. Only the Marlowe-Crowne scale discriminated subjects in the faking bad condition through their low scores. No gender differences were observed as a function of instructional set or test employed. In Study Two, 31 male and female parents were given the CAP-Inventory under the same instructional sets provided in Study One. The findings for the parent group, the population the CAP-Inventory was designed to be employed with, replicated the results found in Study One.
开展了两项研究，以提供有关儿童虐待潜在性量表说谎分量表结构效度的数据。在研究一中，187名男女本科生接受了儿童虐待潜在性量表、马洛-克罗恩社会赞许性量表或不太可能的美德量表的测试。提供了三种指导语：如实回答、以积极方式歪曲回答、以消极方式歪曲回答。每个量表都成功地区分了如实回答和假装表现良好条件下的受试者。只有马洛-克罗恩量表通过低分区分了假装表现恶劣条件下的受试者。未观察到指导语集或所采用测试的性别差异。在研究二中，31名男女家长在与研究一相同的指导语集下接受了儿童虐待潜在性量表测试。家长组（即儿童虐待潜在性量表设计用于的人群）的研究结果重复了研究一中的结果。
