Answer 1

True: social desirability bias can artificially inflate correlation between measures

Social desirability bias sometimes produces unauthentic, strong correlations, which incorrectly indicate a strong association between two variables whereas the truth is completely reverse.

True: Social desirability bias involves intentional impression management

Impression management involves intentionally distorted responses in order to appear better person than they actually are. An excellent example of impression management is seen during job interviews with applicants presenting themselves in such a manner as to appear most suited for the job.
