Preferred term

malingering  

Definition(s)

  • Malingering is the falsification or exaggeration of physiological and/or psychological illness symptoms with the intention of receiving some sort of compensation or reward. Malingering is classified in two degrees: partial malingering, which is the extreme exaggeration of present symptoms, and full malingering, which is the complete fabrication of symptoms.
