An untested assumption of malingering research is that persons who feign mental illness will not attempt to fake a particular disorder, but will be content to fabricate non-specific and possibly global psychiatric impairment. We tested the effectiveness of the Structured Interview of Reported Symptoms (SIRS) to detect feigning of three diagnostic groupings: schizophrenia, mood disorders, and PTSD on 45 psychologically knowledgeable correctional residents. We found that the SIRS maintained its powers of discrimination with respect to clinical samples. Similar research on faking specific disorders is needed on the MMPI-2 and other psychological measures.
伪装研究中一个未经检验的假设是,假装精神疾病的人不会试图伪造某一特定障碍,而是满足于编造非特异性的、可能是全身性的精神障碍。我们对45名具有心理学知识的惩教所居民测试了报告症状结构化访谈(SIRS)在检测对三种诊断分组(精神分裂症、心境障碍和创伤后应激障碍)的伪装方面的有效性。我们发现,SIRS相对于临床样本保持了其区分能力。需要在明尼苏达多相人格调查表第二版(MMPI - 2)和其他心理测量工具上开展关于伪造特定障碍的类似研究。
