The statement that professionally developed tests have the best chance of meeting acceptable validity standards is true. While there may be concerns about specific tests or the developers of certain tests, it is not accurate to make sweeping generalizations about all integrity tests. Research suggests that certain professionally developed integrity tests can be valid predictors of workplace behavior, particularly with regard to counterproductive behavior like theft or dishonesty.
