Abstract

Social security disability assessors are required to objectively quantify disability with regards to potential ability to work. Difficulties arise when assessments need to be performed in the absence of objective medical data relying solely on self-report regarding subjective health complaints. In such cases, validity tests provide a useful tool during an assessment. This case report illustrates this through the outcomes of 3 disability assessments.
