English Dictionary

compensation neurosis

名詞

不可算名詞

A psychic symptom of an injured claimant where he practices a rejectionist attitude towards gainful activity not because his sufferings induced by the injury have transformed into somatic complaints but due to character faults or perverse legal understanding and on this basis demands that the ensuing financial losses be compensated by the tortfeasor.

日本語の意味

怪我を負った請求人が、身体症状に変わるほどの苦痛を訴えるのではなく、性格的な問題や歪んだ法的認識に基づいて、労働などの活動を拒否し、その結果として生じた金銭的損失の補償を、加害者に要求する精神的症状

The defense psychiatrist testified that the claimant's persistent refusal to work was best explained by compensation neurosis rather than genuine somatic injury, and therefore the court should limit the damages.

被告側の精神科医は、原告が仕事を続けない頑なな態度は真の身体的障害によるのではなく、負傷した原告が性格の欠陥や歪んだ法的理解に基づいて就労を拒否し、その結果生じた金銭的損失を加害者に賠償させようとする心理的状態（賠償神経症）によると証言し、それゆえ裁判所は賠償額を制限すべきだと述べた。
