Examined the usefulness of the K-correction procedure to adjust for a defensive response set on the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) with 61 patients being evaluated for lung transplants. Results support the use of the K-correction procedure for this patient group. Implications for MMPI use are discussed. (SLD)

Arbisi, Paul A.; Ben-Porath, Yossef S. – Psychological Assessment, 1998
The effectiveness of the Infrequency-Psychopathology Scale (P. Arbisi and Y. Ben-Porath, 1995) in discriminating between groups of patients administered the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory--2 under honest and fake-bad conditions was studied with 74 patients. Results support use of the scale in detecting malingering in psychiatric…

Bagby, R. Michael; And Others – Psychological Assessment, 1995
Results from 344 college students and 129 psychiatric patients supported the effectiveness of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2 (MMPI-2) Infrequency scale in detecting fake-bad responding and the usefulness of the MMPI-2 Obvious-Subtle index, Positive Malingering scale, and Lie scale in detecting fake-good responding.

Janus, Mark-David; de Groot, Christopher; Toepfer, Steven M. – Assessment, 1998
Studied the use of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory for Adolescents (MMPI-A) (J. Butcher and others, 1992) with 13-year olds by examining the profiles produced. Investigated the effect of scoring with standard MMPI-A norms. Findings support the use of standard MMPI-A norms with 13-year-old inpatients. (SLD)

Arbisi, Paul A.; Ben-Porath, Yossef S. – Psychological Assessment, 1995
The development and initial validation of a new Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory--2 (MMPI-2) scale designed to determine infrequent responding with psychopathological populations are described. Results with 1,179 subjects show that the Infrequency-Psychopathology Scale (F p ) may be useful in settings with high base rates of…

Graham, John R.; Ben-Porath, Yossef S.; McNulty, John L. – Psychological Assessment, 1997
The meaning of low scores on some Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2 (MMPI-2) scales was examined by comparing therapists' descriptors of 669 mental health patients with high, normal, or low scores on each scale. Results show that for most scales both high and low scores provide potentially important information. (SLD)

Lloyd, Camille; And Others – Journal of Clinical Psychology, 1983
Investigated the possible use of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-168 as a screening instrument for identifying individuals (N=27) with borderline personality disorders. Results demonstrated that the MMPI-168 response pattern of borderline patients was clearly distinguishable from the great majority of college graduates. (WAS)

Blais, Mark A.; And Others – Assessment, 1994
The relationship among the nine clinical syndrome scales of the Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory-II (MCMI-II) and clinical scales of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2 (MMPI-2) was studied with 108 psychiatric inpatients. Results indicate convergent validity of only the MCMI-II Axis I scales. (SLD)

Berry, David T. R.; And Others – Psychological Assessment, 1995
Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI-2) validity scales were compared for 20 nonclinical participants, 18 subjects asked to fake injury, 18 head injury patients not seeking compensation, and 30 compensation-seeking head injury patients. Results suggest that MMPI-2 overreporting scales are sensitive to complaint fabrication and…

Arbisi, Paul A.; Ben-Porath, Yossef S. – Psychological Assessment, 1997
A new infrequent response indicator, frequency psychopathology [F(p)] was developed for the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) and tested with 308 male psychiatric inpatients (veterans). Findings support the F(p) as a sensitive index of profile invalidity in psychiatric populations. (SLD)

Freiheit, Stacy R.; And Others – Journal of Youth and Adolescence, 1996
The utility of Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory personality disorder scales was studied with 217 male adolescent psychiatric inpatients. Analyses of variance found patterns consistent with research on adult samples in spite of differences in factor structure. These similarities suggest that adolescent assessment may provide information…

Fantoni-Salvador, Patricia; Rogers, Richard – Assessment, 1997
The concurrent validity of Spanish versions of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2 and the Personality Assessment Inventory (L. Morey, 1991) was studied with 105 Hispanic patients using a revised Spanish version of the Diagnostic Interview Schedule (L. Robins and others, 1981) as the criterion measure.

Wetzler, Scott; Khadivi, Ali; Moser, R. Kevin – Assessment, 1998
The usefulness of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2 (MMPI-2) (J. Butcher and others, 1989) for diagnosis and assessment of depression and psychoses was studied with 264 psychiatric inpatients. MMPI-2 profiles were sensitive to group differences, and the derived regression equations were stable and fairly good at classification.…

Nicholson, Robert A.; Mouton, Glenn J.; Bagby, R. Michael; Buis, Tom; Peterson, Stephanie A.; Buigas, Rudy A. – Psychological Assessment, 1997
Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was used to evaluate 11 Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2 (MMPI-2) indicators of response distortion using 343 college students, some of whom simulated malingering or defensive responding, 181 forensic psychiatric patients, and 95 other psychiatric patients. Results show the usefulness…
