AbstractThe detection of malingering in terms of neurologic signs and symptoms is described, including malingered coma, simulated deafness, feigned blindness, feigned weakness, and diminished sensation.While neurologic malingering is not an actual diagnosis, it is best detected through medical procedures. To identify malingering, the physician must demonstrate that the malingered sign or symptom is not caused by a diagnosable order and is instead clearly a consequence of the subject's volition.
