Goran Pavlov is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychology at the University of Texas at El Paso. His research develops and evaluates methods for personnel selection and assessment, focusing on psychometric modeling of response distortion in personality testing and forced-choice test construction.
Research examines faking susceptibility of different assessment formats, item desirability matching strategies, and statistical approaches for model comparison in structural equation modeling. Studies employ experimental designs to investigate how test formats and instructions influence response behaviors.
Publications demonstrate methodological innovations in personnel testing, including forced-choice formats designed to reduce faking effects. Recent work develops procedures for item desirability matching and evaluates structural equation modeling fit indices under non-normal data conditions.
