Abstract

This study examines the convergent validity of the substantive scales of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2-Restructured Form (MMPI-2-RF) in the Veteran Affairs (VA) population. The sample includes test protocols drawn from all administrations of the MMPI-2-RF or MMPI-2 entered into the electronic medical record system between January 1, 2008 and May 31, 2015 at any VA across the United States. After excluding invalid protocols, substantive scale scores were correlated with external measures of depression, anxiety, and posttraumatic stress disorder if they were administered within |14| days of the MMPI-2/-RF. Results supported the convergent validity of the MMPI-2-RF emotional dysfunction domain scores. Discriminant validity for the remaining MMPI-2-RF substantive scale scores was also adequate. Limitations and implications of these findings are discussed.

摘要

这项研究检查了明尼苏达州多相人格量表-2-重组表（MMPI-2-RF）在退伍军人事务（VA）人群中的实质性量表的收敛效度。该样本包括从2008年1月1日至2015年5月31日期间进入美国任何VA的电子病历系统的所有MMPI-2-RF或MMPI-2主管部门抽取的测试协议。在排除无效方案后，如果在| 14 |内给予有效量表评分，则将其与抑郁，焦虑和创伤后应激障碍的外部测量指标相关联 MMPI-2 / -RF的天数。结果支持MMPI-2-RF情绪障碍功能域评分的收敛效度。其余MMPI-2-RF实质量表分数的判别有效性也足够。
