Dissimule
Definition:
(v. t. & i.) To dissemble.
Example Sentences:

(2) Three questionnaire studies are reported in which sets of items traditionally used to measure impulsiveness were intercorrelated were correlated with measures of the major personality dimensions E (extraversion), N (neuroticism) and P (psychoticism), and also with the L (lie; dissimulation) scale.
(3) Sixty non-psychiatric normal persons and 133 psychiatric cases, representing two major psychotic groups, were investigated for the dissimulation function.
(4) The dissimulating attitude of factitious patients creates the need for objective clinical features which cannot be faked and which have a genuine value for the psychiatric diagnosis and prognosis.
(5) Correlations with the physiologic responses supported the validity of psychometric scales specifically designed to measure PTSD but cast doubt on the interpretation of traditional measures of overreporting or dissimulation in this disorder.
(6) The results show a significant difference between the two groups of normal and abnormal individuals, the abnormal group dissimulating distinctively more than the other.
(7) This kind of dissimulation has been going on forever.
(8) Only the sex difference in Blood-injury fears was meaningfully affected by dissimulation: the usual finding of higher mean scores for females was obtained only after controlling for the influence of Lie scores.
(9) Results of surveys of recourse to care are influenced by differences between potential accessibility and true access, discrepancies between stated preferences and actual use, and dissimulation about use of therapies considered less legitimate.
(10) Finally, the results highlight the need for research on dissimulation in social interaction to consider the effects of acting upon the actor, as well as its effects upon the inferences of observers.
