The objective of this article is to carry out the theoretical analysis of the possibilities for a socialpsychological approach toward the process of recognizing malingering behavior in the course of a forensic-psychiatric examination. We have developed the classification of typical situations of correct and mistaken identification by a medical doctor of the various forms of positive malingering in presenting mental disorders by mentally healthy individuals, and by those with mental disorders. We submit the scheme for the analysis of the reflexive structure of social perception in the course of the interaction between an examinee and a medical doctor, who is a forensic-psychiatric expert, in the situations of «pure» malingering and malingering on top of an extant pathology.
