Explanation / Answer

20.A person who fakes symptoms for a goal is called a malinger, while a person who fakes a disease for no clear goal has a factitious disorder Factitious disorder differs from a pattern of falsified or exaggerated behavior called malingering. While malingerers make their claims out of a motivation for personal gain, people with factitious disorder have no such motivation Malingering is the fabricating of symptoms of mental or physical disorders for a variety of reasons such as financial compensation (often tied to fraud); avoiding school, work or military service; obtaining drugs; or as a mitigating factor for sentencing in criminal cases. People with factitious disorder do several things that are unexpected for patients who present themselves for medical treatment, or for individuals seeking treatment for others in their care. First, they commonly exaggerate or lie about problems in their medical histories or the histories of others. They also present their doctors with symptoms that don’t legitimately come from illnesses or injuries, and fail to use their doctors’ care as a means to get better and recover from their physical or psychological complaints. 21.Grandiose planning is a symptom of manic mood state.Grandiosity is a symptom experienced by people with bipolar disorder during manic and hypomanic episodes. People experiencing grandiosity, or grandiose delusions, often describe larger-than-life feelings of superiority.
