View through CrossRef
AbstractMalingering for the purposes of evading criminal prosecution or obtaining drugs is commonly seen in forensic settings, and forensic mental health clinicians often face difficult decisions when evaluating and treating these individuals. In civil settings, malingering is often related to obtaining potentially large financial settlements. In order to appropriately assess and manage malingering, clinicians must have in‐depth knowledge of the following: (i) prevalence rates of (ii) common reasons for countertransference toward malingering patients; (iii) empirically validated measures of malingering; and (iv) clinical issues related with the evaluation of malingering.
