Note: p values represent contrast between TBI-PTSD- group vs. others. *p <.001, **p <.0001

Percentage of Symptom Validity Test Failures by Diagnostic Subgroup TOMM trial 1 and RDS showed the highest failure rates for all groups, including combat controls. Veterans both TBI and probable PTSD had the highest SVT failure rates overall.
