The Utility of an Improved Readability Short Form of the MMPI with Elderly Male Patients.
Ward, L. Charles; Meyers, Robert
Journal of Clinical Psychology, v40 n4 p997-1000 Jul 1984
Compared three short forms of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (IRF, FAM, and MMPI-168) to the full scale in male veterans aged 60 and over (N=100). Results demonstrated no strong statistical advantage for any short form but indicated that the IRF, because of increased comprehensibility, might have wider applicability. (LLL)
