Malingering detection is an integral part of diagnostic medicine. To identify malingering, physicians have to recognize errors in reasoning. In this book, I discuss the principles of informal reasoning and the application of these principles to diagnostic medicine and malingering detection. The accurate diagnosis of a patient's medical disorder is dependent on the ability of a physician to perform a competent clinical evaluation and to correctly determine the clinical significance of appropriate diagnostic test results. This requires a physician to have knowledge of the subject matter and to have the ability to reason correctly. Malingering occurs when a patient makes a false claim of having a medical disorder for the purpose of personal gain. Malingerers use errors in reasoning to manipulate physicians into believing or pretending to believe that false claims are true. If a physician is unable to differentiate correct reasoning from faulty reasoning then errors in reasoning will become incorporated into his/her reasoning process.
