摘要
In their comment, M. L. Rohling et al. (2011) accused us of offering a "misleading" review of response bias. In fact, the additional findings they provided on this topic are relevant only to bias assessment in I of the domains we discussed, neuropsychological assessment. Furthermore, we contend that, even in that 1 domain, the additional findings they described do not merit revision of our conclusion that the data are insufficient for evaluating the status of bias indicators. We remain hopeful that our review will spur researchers to publish additional tests of the validity of bias indicators in real-world settings and reduce the reliance on analogue studies as an evidence base for their use.
