Malingering or Random? A Research Note on Obvious vs. Subtle Subscales of the MMPI.

Rogers, Richard

Journal of Clinical Psychology, v39 n2 p257-58 Mar 1983

Reviewed clinical usefulness of obvious and subtle Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory subscales in the detection of malingering. Comparison of obvious-subtle differences indicative of malingering (Greene's criteria) and observed differences on random-response protocols were found to be indistinguishable. (Author/JAC)
