Detection of children's malingering on Raven's Standard Progressive Matrices.

چکیده
A formula for detecting faked Raven's SPM profiles was cross-validated on 44 children and adolescents (ages 7-17). It yielded a false negative rate of 64%. However, a rule using three very easy items (i.e., any of A3, A4 or B1 missed) yielded a hit rate of 95%, with 5% false positive and negative rates. All but two of the participants were able to produce lower scores when asked to fake the test.

In this method, an image is represented fractally, capturing its inherent selfsimilarity. We apply these fractal representations to problems from the Raven's test, and show how these representations afford a new method for solving complex geometri...
