Incremental Validity of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory–2 and Symptom Checklist–90–Revised With Mental Health Inpatients

Abstract: This study evaluated the incremental validity of scores from the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2 (MMPI-2) and the Symptom Checklist-90-Revised (SCL-90-R) in a sample of mental health inpatients originally published by Archer, Griffin, and Aiduk (1995). The incremental validity of scores from the SCL-90-R primary symptom dimensions and MMPI-2 Clinical, Content, and Restructured Clinical scales was assessed in a sample of 544 mental health inpatients using conceptually related items from the Brief … Show more

“…However, DEP had moderate to low sensitivity and specificity, regardless of the cutoff point. These results were consistent with those of previous studies (Wetzler et al , 1989; Simonds et al , 2008). One study reported that the D scale of the MMPI has better sensitivity than the DEP scale of the SCL‐90 (Wetzler et al , 1989).…”

“…One study reported that the D scale of the MMPI has better sensitivity than the DEP scale of the SCL-90 (Wetzler et al, 1989). Another study also suggested that if an MMPI has already been administered, little additional information can be gained by subsequent administration of the SCL-90-R. Alternatively, when the SCL-90-R has previously been administered, there is clearly additional information that can be gained through the secondary administration of the MMPI (Simonds et al, 2008).…”

“…In fact, the MMPI-2 Depression scale has been criticized for "underreporting" underlying psychological problems because of its inclusion of items that relate to both somatic symptoms and neurotic traits; thus, patients with chronic pain may be especially sensitive to physical items. 30 However, the depression scores of the CRPS group were also at an intermediate level and fell between those of the normal and MDD groups on the BDI-II. In other words, these differences in psychological traits did not simply reflect the severities of depressive and anxiety symptoms but, rather, reflected, at least in part, the differences in the personality traits of the two disease groups.…”

“…The reliability of this test was calculated by Cronbach's alpha method (94%). The correlation coefficient was estimated at 88% using the test-retest method with the time interval of one year, so its validity is at a high level (Simonds et al, 2008). The criterion validity coefficients of the nine dimensions of this test with the Minnesota multidimensional questionnaire, except for obsessive-compulsivescales, was reported between 36% and 73%, all of which were at the significant (p <0.05) (Christensen et al, 2018).…”
