Abstract

Most psychological assessments are normed using white North American populations. People from other cultural backgrounds may have different response styles, potentially skewing measurements and engendering misdiagnoses. Our systematic review of response styles among Latinx peoples revealed a tendency toward extreme responding, which is often not accounted for in the literature.
