Mmpi 2 scoring interpretation
One of the most widely used dimensional measures of psychopathology is the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-Second Edition ( MMPI- 2). Accurate diagnosis of psychopathology remains an important goal of quality health care for people with seizure disorders. People with seizure disorders experience elevated rates of psychopathology, often undiagnosed and untreated. We discuss clinical implications and directions for further research.Įlevation discrepancies between MMPI- 2 clinical and MMPI- 2-RF restructured clinical (RC) scales in people with seizure disorders.īowden, Stephen C White, Jessica R Simpson, Leonie Ben-Porath, Yossef S Our findings support the comparability of the scores of the 338-item version and the 567-item version of the 50 MMPI- 2-RF scales. We compared results with those previously reported by Tellegen and Ben-Porath (2008). In this study, we evaluated the comparability of the MMPI- 2-RF scale scores derived from the original 567-item MMPI- 2 booklet with MMPI- 2-RF scale scores derived from the 338-item MMPI- 2-RF booklet in a Dutch student sample (N = 107). In most validity studies on the recently released 338-item MMPI- 2 (Butcher, Dahlstrom, Graham, Tellegen, & Kaemmer, 1989) Restructured Form ( MMPI- 2-RF Ben-Porath & Tellegen, 2008 Tellegen & Ben-Porath, 2008), scale scores were derived from the 567-item MMPI- 2 booklet.
