A misleading review of response bias
In the May 2010 issue of Psychological Bulletin, R. E. McGrath, M. Mitchell, B. H. Kim, and L. Hough published an article entitled "Evidence for Response Bias as a Source of Error Variance in Applied Assessment" (pp. 450-470). They argued that response bias indicators used in a variety of settings typically have insufficient data to support such use in everyday clinical practice. Furthermore, they claimed that despite 100 years of research into t…

Toxic Mold and Mycotoxins in Neurotoxicity Cases
Presented is the argument that psychologists and neuropsychologists have no scientific basis for rendering opinions about causation given the current state of the literature. The critical question is whether in a residence or office inhalation of mold spores or mold metabolites, including mycotoxins, causes neuropsychological impairment or mental and emotional disorders. There has not been sufficient research to support such conclusions. Nonethel…

Response Bias in Self-Reported History of Plaintiffs Compared with Nonlitigating Patients
Response bias refers to systematic error in the data produced by patients or research subjects, e.g., due to erroneous recall or reporting. In forensic settings, response bias appears to be associated with the nature of the proceedings. The present study tested whether patients in litigation exhibit different response patterns than nonlitigating patients when asked about their preinjury problems. 34 litigants and 80 nonlitigants rated various are…

Human Response to Traumatic Events
In documenting cognitive processes underlying persons' reactions to negative events, counterfactual thinking, hindsight bias, and attribution theory focus on distinct, although not unrelated, aspects of human information processing. Counterfactual thinking highlights the cognitive processing undertaken when persons imagine different courses of action that lead to alternative outcomes. Hindsight bias describes the inflated retrospective estimates …
A Fake Bad Scale on the MMPI-2 for Personal Injury Claimants
This paper presents a scale for using the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2 for the detection of malingerers in personal injury claims. Data are reported for personal injury claimants and for medical outpatients simulating emotional distress caused by motor vehicle accidents, industrial stress, and toxic exposure. Criterion problems are discussed. The answers and scored directions are presented in an appendix to the paper

Provisional Normative Data for a Credibility Scale for Assessing Personal Injury Claimants
Preliminary normative data are presented for an experimental scale to assess credibility of personal injury claimants. The distinction between credibility and malingering and the need for credibility assessment in personal injury claims are discussed. Recommendations are made for use of the Credibility Scale
MMPI Subtle-Obvious Scales and Malingering
Subtle-obvious scale discrepancies on the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory were compared for pathology simulators and clinical groups to test the hypothesis that subtle-obvious scores help differentiate simulators. Total obvious minus subtle T score discrepancy greater than 100 discriminated the student malingerers and produced few false positives among clinical populations such as psychiatric inpatients and outpatients. The hypothesis…
Malingering Traumatic Mental Disorder on the Beck Depression Inventory
The revised Beck Depression Inventory is widely used to measure severity of depression, and it is often used in personal injury litigation as evidence of trauma. However, the potential vulnerability of the inventory to malingering has not been assessed. of a group of 52 untrained volunteers, 96% were able to fake depression on the inventory and 58% successfully faked extremely severe depression. Users are cautioned against treating Beck's invento…
Malingering Emotional Distress on the Scl-90-R
This study reports that 100% of 52 untrained volunteers were able to fake psychopathology on the SCL-90-R at a level comparable to the average range for psychiatric patients. Although not questioning the nonforensic clinical usefulness of the instrument, the author cautions SCL-90-R users to employ the instrument with care in contexts in which deception is an issue. Data on efforts to fake cancerphobia and emotional distress secondary to toxic ex…
