Great explanation, one comment! An important distinction to make, is that the mmpi is designed to test your levels in each of these scales, OVER THE PAST SIX MONTHS. This is very important contextually, because a test attempting to evaluate someone's recent phycological state is going to be quite different from (and much simpler that), a test attempting to evaluate the phycological profile of someone across their lifetime. This is also important, because it changes the literal meaning of each scale, allowing it to be interpreted in context. This is NOT a test which can diagnose you with antisocial personality disorder, or depression. It is only a test which can assess how depressed or antisocial you've been for the past six months. whether these are things which have been going for awhile, or only occurred recently, possibly after some event, are where context comes in. It's actually more helpful diagnostically, for things like bipolar and schizophrenia, which are defined mainly by the symptoms leading up to and consisting of their onset. For instance, the test could indicate both a depressed and hypomanic episode, or the onset of psychotic symptoms, which are the primary diagnostic features of these disorders.

i took the mmpi multiple times in clinical (early inpatient rehab) and correctional (prison) settings in the 80's. the results can vary especially once we understood its function. mini versions show up in orientations for prison. back in rehab we long term residents often addressed and formulated "therapy" for each other based on our understanding of our diagnosis. I found it useful.

Very true. Once you start thinking about the outcome of the test, it gets easier to influence the same. And it's really good to know that long term residents try to help each other out when possible. Colleague intervention can work even better than clinical intervention by therapists at times.

I have a question. Where does the difference lie in the intent of administration of MCMI 3 and the MMPI 2? Would/ can one test substitute another? Can either test be used for similar purposes or to achieve the same objective?
@MisterSimplify
@MisterSimplify Жыл бұрын
Hello! Yes it can be. MCMI tests are newer and were intended to improve upon the long-established MMPI. The difference between MCMI and MMPI is the subject of some research papers. It all depends on which type of test is in use at the specific clinical assessment practice you get referred to.

i got my result and it says that mine is invalid due to overreporting of symptoms. to be exact, it says on the result that " he has presented or believed himself to be significantly maladjusted albeit at the level that is rare even among those with legitimate mental health concerns rendering his protocol uninterpretable" as far as i know i didn't lie on my tests. whatever i think first, thats what i answer.

hi i'd like to ask i took an mmpi for a recruitment test and i think my lie scale must be elevated but my trin and vrin and other scales are within normal range plus i had a psychological interview the next day but the interviewer didn't talk about my mmpi. Do you think that my mmpi will be invalid or not if that's the case?is the lie scale automatically fails you in the job recruitment process while i think i did good on the interview
@MisterSimplify
@MisterSimplify Ай бұрын
Hello! I think the interviewer didn't discuss the MMPI because they probably weren't allowed to. It's also possible that they have external bodies evaluating MMPI scores. They will surely consider all factors, and not just the MMPI. I hope you're successful. But if you're unsuccessful, I'd recommend that you drop them a polite request to provide you feedback. They might then include feedback relevant to the MMPI too. All the best!

Hi Jim. Did they not schedule a follow-up appointment to discuss the outcomes of the test? That's strange. Perhaps they said they would organise one if there are any signs of concern. Perhaps everything is normal. I would still check with them.

Hello I took this exam for a local police department, I failed as in one of the sections it seemed as if I was “trying to put my best foot forward” and that it seems as if “nothing stresses me out” other than that my results were average. Any tips for my next go around in this exam ? Thanks
@MisterSimplify

Hi Joey. It's difficult to provide any specific tips. Just try to think of yourself as an imperfect person with flaws (however perfect, calm, etc you might be). Sometimes, the assessors try too hard to detect manipulation patterns. It's not fair for people who actually don't get stressed out easily!

If it's just a question or two, it could go unnoticed and affect the outcome. If it's too many questions, the facilitators could notice a pattern and suggest you to retake the test.

To my mind the MMPI is useless in this day and age. If someone knows they are going to have to complete an MMPI they just need to do a Google search to know what is required to complete the test and get a good all round score. I have proved this on four occasion over 40 years. The first time I was good and the results were a good representation of me, The next test some 8 years later I just had a lot of fun, so I was now a deep depressive and paranoid schizophrenic. On the third time I told the psychologist I was Dyslexic so she read out the whole paper and I used her body language to answer the paper, The last time 10 years ago I ticked all the opposite answers, so instead of TRUE I ticked FAULS. Why did I have so meany tests, first test was after a very horrid incidence, the rest were just a case of 'if you stroke a psychologists ego enough they will do anything'

True. There's a lot of information available (including this tutorial) for people to understand how it's suppose to work. Many can use it to try and trick the test for sure. And the same is true for everything these days. When one has a physical injury these days, anything a physio advises can be checked and verified through various sources including youtube videos. We live in an interesting world! 🙂

But I didn't look into this in great detail. So let's see what he ends up doing!
