%X The benefits and rationale for including a psychologic assessment of a patient with an industrial hand injury are discussed. Issues of compliance and malingering in patients are addressed. The role of pre-existing conditions in understanding an injured patient's current emotional state is explored and contrasted with posttraumatic stress disorders. Recent trends in psychologic assessment techniques are highlighted.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
