The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory‐2: A Review

Abstract

The new version of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory, the MMPI‐2, is described and critiqued in this article. The MMPI‐2 has many positive features such as updated items, new norms, additional validity scales, and additional clinical scales for diagnosing problems not addressed by the original MMPI. There are, however, also many negative features for this test such as problems with the compatibility of code types and the representativeness of the norm group. Much research needs to be done before accurate interpretations can be made for all MMPI‐2 profiles and the full potential of the test is realized.
