Respuesta :
In the context of response sets, a person who tries to present himself or herself in a positive way in a questionnaire is showing social desirability.
The tendency of survey respondents to provide answers that will be perceived favourably by others is known as social-desirability bias, and it is a type of response bias used in social science research. It can manifest as either an exaggeration of "positive behaviour" or an underreporting of "poor" or unwanted behaviour.
Conducting research using self-reports is severely hampered by the propensity. This prejudice makes it difficult to understand both individual differences and general trends. The final step of the response process, when the response is relayed to the researcher, is where social desirability bias enters the picture. Here, the remark is edited in a more or less intentional manner to move it in the direction the respondent deems to be more socially acceptable.
