When the article was first published online, Tables 3 and 4 were published incorrectly. The tables have been revised in the article and the amended version is republished online.

The corrected versions of Tables 3 and 4 are as follow:

Notes: N = 298. Control = honest responder; MS = mild TBI simulator; BMS = biased mild TBI simulator; RPQ = Rivermead Post-concussion Symptoms Questionnaire; mRPQ = modified Rivermead Post-concussion Symptoms Questionnaire; mRPQ Standard Symptoms Subscale (SS) scores are derived from standard (unmodified) RPQ items; mNSI = modified NSI (with embedded SVI items); NSI = Neurobehavioral Symptoms Inventory; Validity-10 = A SVI that is derived from the NSI items (Vanderploeg et al., 2014); mBIAS = mild brain injury atypical symptoms scale (Cooper et al., 2011); Distractor Items from the [Concussion] Risk Perception Questionnaire (Fedor & Gunstad, 2015).

Notes: N = 298; mRPQ = modified Rivermead Post-concussion Symptoms Questionnaire (Windle & Sullivan, 2019); mNSI = modified Neurobehavioral Symptoms Inventory, with the modification comprising the addition of: a) mild brain injury atypical symptoms scale (mBIAS) items; (Cooper et al., 2011), and; b) “distractor” items from the [Concussion] Risk Perception Questionnaire (Fedor & Gunstad, 2015). NSI = Neurobeahavioral Symptom Inventory. Spearman’s Rho used because of breaches of normality. All correlations significant (Bonferroni-adjusted α of .007).
