Validation of malingered amnesia measures with a large clinical sample.
Abstract
A large sample of chronic postconcussive patients with and without overt malingering signs was compared with objectively brain-injured patients on common episodic memory and malingered amnesia measures. Probable malingerers and traumatically brain-injured subjects were not differ-entiated on popular episodic recall tests. In contrast, probable malingerers performed poorly on the Rey 15-Item, Rey Word Recognition List, Reliable Digit Span, Portland Digit Recognition Test, and Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test recognition trial. These findings validated both commonly cited malingering measures and newly introduced methods of classifying malingering in real-world clini-cal samples. The base rate for malingering in chronically complaining mild head injury patients may be much larger than previously assumed. Traditional neuropsychological measures do not satisfacto-rily discriminate between cerebrally impaired people and ma-lingerers (Faust, Hart, & Guilmette, 1988a, 1988b; Heaton, Smith, Lehman, & Vogt, 1978). The response to this problem has been the development of single measures of malingering of neurocognitive impairments (Binder, 1993; Hiscock & His-

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
