• Analyzed the performance of TOMM-1 and M-FAST cutoffs in detecting feigning.
• Compared individual and combined effectiveness of both tests.
• Focused on cases of simulated and clinical dissociative identity disorder.
• Using TOMM-1 cutoff of ≤41 and M-FAST cutoff of ≥6 improves detection of feigned symptoms.
• Chaining multiple validity tests enhances identification of dissociative identity disorder.
