Written specifically for the clinical neuropsychologist who does
forensic consultations, the book is a comprehensive review by
experts of the procedures available to evaluate malingered
neuropsychological deficits. It discusses tools for detecting
atypical patterns of performance on standard clinical tests as well
as malingering on measures of perception and sensorimotor function,
of attention, processing speed, and memory, and of executive
function. The underpinnings of the forensic neuropsychology
enterprise are presented in chapters on definitions of malingering,
research designs for its evaluation, data on the frequency with
which malingering occurs, diagnostic classification statistics,
symptom validity tests that do not depend on forced choice testing,
and those that do. Guidance on assessing exaggerated psychiatric
symptoms; exaggerated medical symptoms and injuries; and detecting
malingering during the neurological exam is also included. Of
particular note is a chapter devoted to the topic of coaching. The
book closes with a review of the diagnostic criteria for
malingering and looks to the future with evidence-based proposals
for improving the criteria.
