Sensitivity of MMPI-2 Validity Scales to Underreporting of Symptoms.
Baer, Ruth A.; And Others
Psychological Assessment, v7 n4 p419-23 Dec 1995
Standard and supplementary scales designed to detect underreporting of symptoms on the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) and the MMPI-2 were studied with 50 individuals who completed the MMPI-2 under fake-good instructions and 50 who had standard instructions. Two supplementary scales were valuable in discriminating standard from underreported profiles. (SLD)
