MMPI Profiles of Rheumatic Fever Adolescents and Adults.

Stehbens, James A.; And Others

Journal of Clinical Psychology, v38 n3 p592-96 Jul 1982

Showed that Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) scores for adolescent and adult victims of rheumatic fever (N=162) were generally lower than Mayo Clinic norms. Significant age effects confirm findings that adolescents score higher on the MMPI. Found patients without carditis scored higher than carditis patients, contrary to expectation. (Author/JAC)
