An overview of malingering and deception in neuropsychiatric cases
Forensic practitioners must shoulder special responsibilities when evaluating over‐stated pathology (e.g., malingering) as well as simulated adjustment. Such determinations may modify or even override other clinical findings. As a result, practitioners must be alert to their own misassumptions that may unintentionally bias their conclusions about response styles. Detection strategies for malingering—based on unlikely or markedly amplified present…
Are forensic evaluators more likely to conclude that Black or White defendants are malingering
OBJECTIVE: Malingering is a particularly stigmatizing forensic opinion that may be prone to racial bias, although scant research has investigated the possibility. We examined whether forensic evaluators are more likely to opine that Black defendants or White defendants are overstating mental health symptoms. HYPOTHESES: Study 1 (a field study) was exploratory. Following Study 1 findings, in Study 2 (an experiment), we hypothesized that participan…
Evaluation of Malingering and Related Response Styles
This chapter provides an updated conceptual framework for understanding malingering and feigning. It contextualizes issues of malingering and identifies common yet harmful misassumptions, including the laser-accuracy myth of cut scores. Research designs for feigning are reviewed, including two that are deficient (differential prevalence and partial-criterion). As a key component of the chapter, detection strategies are summarized for two importan…
