Resumen

MORA VIQUEZ, Cristian. Simulación de síntomas psicóticos y su evaluación para ayudar a establecer inimputabilidad. Med. leg. Costa Rica [online]. 2014, vol.31, n.1, pp.31-48. ISSN 2215-5287.

A professional in psychology should know about the versatility that his or her role can have in various contexts, especially when faced with legal treatments as helping to determine dynamic simulation throughout the insanity justice system. Therefore, it provides a bibliography based on the final graduation to obtain the degree of clinical psychologist, entitled “Simulation of psychotic symptoms and psychological assessment: psycho-legal elements and their relationship to clinical and forensic on costarrican context “ in which we go on reflection on these kind of issues. First of all, we provide a general placement of the role as psychologists in these circumstances, reviewing and describing various dynamic simulations of psychotic symptoms that include the concepts of simulation and are reflected in positive and negative symptoms. Examples are given of atypical symptoms, strange or exaggerated and conclude with a summary of psychological tests that generate both indirect indicators and others that are designed to detect specific simulation of psychosis. One final thought concerns the need to integrate these data with an exhaustive review of collateral information, choice and proper application of psychological tests and appropriate care dynamics simulation to describe a person, by the delicate implications involving diagnosis.

Palabras clave : Malingering; factitious disorder; forensic psychology; psychological test.
