A meta - analysis was conducted to determine the extent to which the computer adminsitration of a measure influences socially desirable responding. Social desirability as defined as consisting of two components, impression management and self - descriptive enhancement. A small but statistically significant effect (d = - 0,08) was found for impression management, with impresion management being lower when assessed by computer. Correlational analysis revealed, however, that the strength of the effect of computer administration on impression management appeared to diminish over time such that more recent studies have found small or no effects. Consistent with its conceptualization, reports of self - deceptive enhancement did not differ by testing format. The implications of these findings are discussed in terms of how they contribute to the explication of the construct of social desirability and cross - mode equivalence.
