abstract="A simulation design was used to test the validity of the SIRS as a structured interview for the assessment of malingering. A correctional sample (25 simulators and 26 controls) was compared to previous validation research (Rogers et al., 1989) which had employed clinical and community samples. <br><br>RESULTS indicated that six of the 13 SIRS scales, as well as overall item endorsement, differed consistently between honest and simulating/malingering conditions across correctional, clinical, and community settings. In addition, the suggestion that sociopaths may be more effective malingerers was not supported by the SIRS data.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
