Synopsis

Written for those interested in learning about and using the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory, this comprehensive guide is written in a nontechnical manner accessible to both undergraduate and graduate students. It covers all aspects of administering and interpreting the test. The updated second edition has greatly expanded coverage of computerized administration, scoring, and interpretation, with particular attention given to the special issues computerization has created. It contains information on psychometric properties of the test, its use with subjects for whom the test was not standardized (ethnic groups, adolescents, medical patients, correctional subjects, and subjects in nonclinical settings), and new findings on interpretation of the test, including information on three-point codes and other configural aspects of the profile. Valuable reference appendices concerning the composition of various scales and subscales and their associated T-score conversions are also included. Distinguished by its clear, step-by-step exposition of the MMPI, this book conveys a wealth of basic information invaluable to both students and clinicians.
