The following optimal cutoff scores for these equations should be used:

Fake good = 60.60 or greater

Fake bad = 59.50 or greater (and if the score on random is less than or equal to 48.01)

Random = 48.01 or less (and the score on fake bad is equal to or less than 59.50)

Research using simulators suggests that these equations detect fake bad protocols 84% of the time, fake good protocols 61% of the time, and random protocols about 63% of the time (Gough & Bradley, 2005). It is hoped that clinicians would be able to increase these detection rates by considering the person’s overall context—especially his or her reasons for taking the test and past history.
