S ummary . The Survey of Opinions about Education was administered to four groups of student teachers (N=240). In completing the questionnaire a second time subjects were asked to fake the responses in accordance with those of an ‘ideal’ student on the colleges' education courses. This resulted in increased mean Radicalism scores and decreased mean Tendermindedness Scores. A sex difference was evident in students' interpretation of faking the Naturalism scale. Otherwise sex and maturity of the student did not significantly affect the extent of the induced changes in responses
