Malingering is commonly encountered in the psychiatric emergency department, yet little is known about its prevalence, objectives, or effect on patient management. This study analyzed characteristics of malingering and patient disposition in a 24/7-staffed comprehensive psychiatric emergency program (CPEP) and created predictive models to understand malingering and its effect on physician decision making.Methods: Attending psychiatrists completed questionnaires after comprehensive assessments of 405 patients presenting to the CPEP during the 1-month study, recording suspicion of malingering, symptoms malingered, associated secondary gains, demographic characteristics, and initial disposition decision. Analyses examined characteristics associated with degree of malingering suspicion and disposition.
