I understand the reasoning, but asking the same question literally 10 times in a row on the same page seems rather excessive. Most surveys I've seen that include duplicate questions do it more subtly, eg. including the same question with different wording once on each of several different pages. If the user is aware that you think they're lazy and/or stupid, and that you're testing to make sure they're paying attention to a survey they already indicated they're willing to complete even though they're nothing in it for them, that doesn't seem like a good approach.

Also, that reasoning doesn't explain the "synonym list" block, where all the negative words are on the left and all the positive words are on the right -- the only reason anyone wouldn't want to check all the boxes in the same column there would be if they didn't understand English well enough to understand some of the words.
