MMPI correlates of relatively localized brain damage

Abstract

Examined the MMPI correlates of relatively localized brain damage classified along dimensions of laterality and caudality. Forty patients with lateralized lesions that involved anterior or posterior cerebral areas were studied. Based on a multivariate analysis of variance, results revealed significant differences in MMPI profiles between left hemisphere and right hemisphere lesion groups. The MMPI profile for the left hemisphere lesion group is well within the normal range; the right hemisphere lesion group is beyond normal limits, primarily on scales 8 and 2. Several issues are discussed in an effort to integrate these findings with previous studies.
