متن کاملHistorical Highlights on the Empirical Method Underlying the Mmpi/mmpi-2 and Mmpi-a1
What is there about the MMPI scales that make them such valid and effective measures at detecting mental health and personality problems? What is the basis for their long-term survival value in personality assessment? The primary reason is that they were developed with the idea that personality scale items needed to be valid predictors before they were included on a measure. The original MMPI c...
