Table 2. The ratios of the CSI with the HEXACO-PI-R resulting from the HTMT method.

Measures	1	2	3	4	5	6	7
1. CSI	-
2. Honesty	0.33	-
3. Emotionality	0.38	0.27	-
4. Extraversion	0.38	0.27	0.3	-
5. Agreeableness	0.30	0.38	0.39	0.3	-

7. Openness	0.36	0.32	0.25	0.27	0.32	0.32	-

The proposed cut-off value is .85 [47], with higher ratios indicating insufficient discriminant validity.
