Abstract

A case-by-act in forensic psychology is mobbing. With the intention of contributing to the development of existing techniques, LIPT-60 usefulness for the forensic psychological evaluation of mobbing was analysed. A sample of 90 workers, half male and half female, completed LIPT-60 in a feigning design under two conditions: first under standard/reality instructions and then under feigning instructions. The results revealed that the sample was able to feign suffering from mobbing in LIPT-60; they carried out two feigning strategies, suffering exaggeration and indiscriminate grouping of mobbing behaviors; that NEAP’s and IMAP’s cut-off points, suggested for suspected feigning, are not validfor forensic practice; and that there were no feigning differences based on gender. Implications for forensic practice are discussed in this study.
