MALINGERING JOURNAL

. A malingerer may, for instance , plan to raise the temperature of a thermometer through heat from a lamplight, or alter a urine sample by adding sand thereto . Some cases of malingering are easy to detect. However, if the malingerer is more discrete, a clinician may have great difficulty gathering evidence for an accurate diagnosis.
Malingering isn't a psychiatric disorder. it's almost like , but distinct from, factitious disorder, during which a private fakes symptoms without a concrete motive of reward. Malingering is additionally break away somatic symptom disorder, during which an individual experiences real psychological distress from imagined or exaggerated symptoms. Malingering can cause abuse of the medical system, with unnecessary tests being performed and time removed from other patients.
Malingering can exist during a sort of intensities, from pure (in which all symptoms are falsified) to partial, during which symptoms are merely exaggerated. A patient may simulate symptoms of a selected disorder or deny the existence of a drag which will explain the symptoms they're experiencing.
Malingering isn't easy to detect due to the wide selection of possible falsified or exaggerated symptoms, also because the difficulty in gathering overt evidence. a radical clinical interview is crucial to understanding whether an individual is malingering or not.
