From the results outlined in this paper it seems that the practice of explicitly drawing attention to the L scale does help reduce the amount of faking good.' (Author)

In general, this study found that the validity of single MMPI scales for predicting psychiatric symptoms was too low to be clinically useful for predictions about the individual case. The psychotic scales were particularly lacking in validity. The validity data for all scales is given. (Author/CG)
