Feigning causes personal and societal consequences, in both civil and criminal context. We investigated whether presenting the consequences of feigning can diminish symptom endorsement in feigned Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). We randomly allocated non-native English speaking undergraduates (N = 145) to five conditions: 1) Truth tellers (n = 31), 2) Civil context feigners (n = 27), 3) Civil context warned feigners (n = 26), 4) Criminal context feigners (n = 29), and 5) Criminal context warned feigners (n = 32). All feigning groups received a vignette depicting a situation in which claiming PTSD would be beneficial. One vignette referred to the personal injury claim, whereas the second was about the aggravated assault charges. Additionally, one feigning group from each setting received information about the consequences of feigning (i.e., warned feigners). After receiving the instructions, all participants were administered the Self-Report Symptom Inventory (SRSI), a measure of symptom endorsement. Truth tellers endorsed fewer symptoms than all feigning groups, which mostly did not differ. Yet, criminal warned feigners (59%) were significantly less frequently detected on the SRSI as overreporters than other feigning groups (86.2%-89%). Hence, emphasizing the negative consequences of overreporting may diminish symptom endorsement, but only in high-stake situations. The implications and limitations (e.g., online measure administration) of this work are discussed.

呈现假装的后果:它会减少症状过度认可吗?一项模拟研究。

假装会在民事和刑事方面造成个人和社会后果。我们调查了表现假装的后果是否可以减少假装的创伤后应激障碍 (PTSD) 中的症状认可。我们将非英语母语的本科生(N = 145)随机分配到五个条件:1)说真话的人(n = 31),2)民事情境伪装者(n = 27),3)民事情境警告伪装者(n = 26) , 4) 犯罪背景伪装者 (n = 29),和 5) 犯罪背景警告伪装者 (n = 32)。所有假装的团体都收到了一个小插曲,描述了声称 PTSD 将是有益的情况。一个小插曲提到了人身伤害索赔,而第二个小插曲是关于严重的袭击指控。此外,每个环境中的一个假装小组收到有关假装后果的信息(即,警告伪装者)。收到指示后,所有参与者都接受了自我报告症状量表(SRSI),这是一种症状认可的衡量标准。说真话的人比所有假装的群体认可的症状要少,后者大多没有差异。然而,犯罪警告伪装者 (59%) 在 SRSI 中被检测为过度报告者的频率明显低于其他伪装群体 (86.2%-89%)。因此,强调过度报告的负面后果可能会减少对症状的认可,但仅限于高风险的情况。讨论了这项工作的含义和限制(例如,在线测量管理)。大部分没有什么不同。然而,犯罪警告伪装者 (59%) 在 SRSI 中被检测为过度报告者的频率明显低于其他伪装群体 (86.2%-89%)。因此,强调过度报告的负面后果可能会减少对症状的认可,但仅限于高风险的情况。讨论了这项工作的含义和限制(例如,在线测量管理)。大部分没有什么不同。然而,犯罪警告伪装者 (59%) 在 SRSI 中被检测为过度报告者的频率明显低于其他伪装群体 (86.2%-89%)。因此,强调过度报告的负面后果可能会减少对症状的认可,但仅限于高风险的情况。讨论了这项工作的含义和限制(例如,在线测量管理)。
