[IPAC-List] Test Cheating Techniques

[Shekerjian, Rene]

A presentation was given at MAPAC in 2008 that illustrated various way people can cheat, based, I believe, on actual incidents. The title was "What's New in Technology and Cheating." There was some information on cheating prevention as well.

Here is a link to the PowerPoint slides:

It strays away from the original question, but I've heard some interesting
cheating stories from people who run testing centers.  I'd be interested in
seeing a training manual for the job of test center proctor that addresses
cheating and how to detect it.

I understand why such materials are not widely available.  But surely among
testing professionals...

The recent discussions around personality test preparation aroused my
curiosity about the creative ways in which job applicants have cheated on
pre employment tests.  Does anyone have examples of unique and creative ways
applicants have been caught cheating?
