MEMORANDUM**
We affirm the judgment of the district court.
I. The ALJ’s Development of The Record
Whether the ALJ had a duty to request medical source statements is irrelevant to the relief Harris seeks: a remand for an award of benefits or, alternatively, a remand with instructions to the ALJ to consider the report by Dr. Berselli that Harris submitted to the Appeals Council. Thus, we need not decide whether an ALJ conducting a disability hearing has an affirmative duty to request medical source statements — a question not yet resolved in any of this circuit’s published opinions. We only need to consider whether the Berselli report warrants a remand.
II. The Berselli Report Does Not Warrant a Remand
A. Remand For an Award of Benefits
Smolen v. Chater,1 Ramirez v. Shalala,2 and Lester v. Chater3 do not support Harris’s argument that we should remand for an award of benefits. We remanded directly for benefits awards in those cases because the ALJs had improperly discredited certain testimony, and when the testimony was credited, it was clear that benefits were due. Thus, there were no further issues or evidence to consider on remand.4 Here, the ALJ did not improperly discredit any testimony,5 and even taking the Berselli report into account, it is far from clear that Harris is due any benefits. Thus, we would at most remand only for the ALJ to consider the Berselli report, rather than invoking the “limited exception” of remanding directly for a benefits award.6
B. Remand for Consideration of the Berselli Report
A remand to the ALJ to consider the Berselli report is not warranted. We remand disability determinations for consideration of new evidence such as the Ber-selli report only if the new evidence “is material and [ ] there is good cause for the failure to incorporate such evidence into the record in a prior proceeding.”7 The *583Berselli report is not material and Harris has not shown good cause for failing to present it sooner.
1. Materiality.
New evidence meets the materiality requirement if it “bear[s] directly and substantially on the matter in dispute” and “there is a reasonable possibility that the new evidence would have changed the outcome” in the administrative adjudication.8 The new medical report does not meet the materiality requirement because there is little chance the report would have changed the outcome of the hearing.
The fact that the new medical report stated that Harris is “disabled” is of no special significance and does not control the ALJ’s decision.9 In addition, the Ber-selli report conflicted with an earlier report by Dr. Berselli — which had been before the ALJ — because the earlier report did not state or imply that Harris was disabled or that he would encounter any serious difficulties in working a standard eight-hour day. The Berselli report submitted to the Appeals Council was not informed by any new examinations, tests, data or other information, however. The second report was merely a re-charaeter-ization of the same information upon which the first report had been based. The ALJ would have therefore been entitled to weigh the inconsistent reports and credit one over the other.10 Given that the second report was submitted after the ALJ’s decision and therefore is less persuasive than the first,11 there is little chance that the second report would have changed the ALJ’s decision.
2. Good Cause.
Harris has not explained his failure to submit the Berselli report to the ALJ, nor is any explanation apparent from the record. Thus, Harris has not shown good cause for his failure to provide the ALJ with the Berselli report.
III. The ALJ Properly Discredited Part of Harris’s Testimony
Harris argues that the ALJ should not have discredited portions of Harris’s testimony. However, substantial evidence12 shows that Harris was malingering. An SSA employee noted on Harris’s Disability Report form that, when applying for benefits, Harris “called attention” to his back pain and walked “bent over and with a grim face” while in the employee’s direct view, but that these pain symptoms suddenly disappeared when he was leaving the office. The ALJ also noticed that Har*584ris had no problems walking during the hearing and appeared comfortable, even though his own testimony suggested the picture of a person in “misery” due to constant, moderate-to-severe pain over most of his body. Finally, Harris testified that he had endured back problems for his entire life, but at least one of his medical reports indicated that he had few or no health problems prior to 1995. Thus, there was substantial evidence of malingering, which provided a clear and convincing reason for doubting Harris’s credibility.13
IV. The ALJ Considered Psychological Factors Regarding Harris’s Pain
The record includes a detailed psychological evaluation, and the ALJ expressly stated that he considered the “combination of [Harris’s] physical and mental impairments as they affect his capacity to work.” Harris is thus incorrect in asserting that the ALJ did not consider the possibility of a psychological basis for Harris’s perception of pain. In addition, Harris has cited no evidence affirmatively indicating that his pain had a psychological basis. Thus, substantial evidence supports the ALJ’s implicit conclusion that Harris’s pain did not have a psychological basis.
V. The ALJ Did Not Reject Any of Dr. Feldman’s Medical Opinions
The “Personal” section of Dr. Feldman’s report appears to recite background information supplied by Harris. In contrast, the “Physical Examination” and “Impression” sections contain Dr. Feldman’s medical observations and conclusions. These sections make no reference to a disabling back problem. Thus, substantial evidence supports the conclusion that the “disabled” statement in the “Personal” section was an assertion Harris made to Dr. Feldman, not one of Dr. Feldman’s medical opinions. Accordingly, the ALJ did not improperly reject any of Dr. Feldman’s medical opinions.
VI. The ALJ Did Not Err in Formulating The Vocational Hypothetical
“[T]he [vocational] hypothetical posed must include ‘all of the claimant’s functional limitations, both physical and mental’ supported by the record.”14 “The functional limitations referred to in the PRTF are those of concentration, persistence and pace. The ‘failure to complete tasks in a timely manner’ is not a functional limitation but the end result of deficiencies of concentration, persistence or pace.”15 Accordingly, Harris’s argument that the ALJ was required to include in the hypothetical a statement that Harris “often fails to complete tasks in a timely manner” lacks merit.
