Harris Lingoes
|
Subscales for 6 of the clinical scales that are NOT heterogeneous (left off 1 (Hs), 5, 7 (Pt), 0).
Should only interpret them IF parent scales are elevated (T>65), and interp s/b ltd to explaining why parent scale was high. Scales group items similar in content. Can be useful when elevation is not expected from hx, or when elevation is 65 to 70. |
|
|
S Scale
|
Superlative Self Presentation Scale
items: 50. compared pilots' responses to sample. T = 70+: Test completed defensively. may be invalid. Prob should not interpret in clinical settings. (In nonclinical, interpret 70 to 74 cautiously). IF TRIN > 80, probably random F responses caused high score. T<70: No malingering. However, text also suggests high scores are indicative of those who FAKE GOOD, especially in nonclinical respondents |
|
|
TRIN
|
True Response Inconsistence Scale
Items: pairs should be one T and one F (score if all T or all F response) INVALID if > 80 (i.e., raw score > 13 =True response bias or raw score < 5 =False response bias) Interpretable profile: raw score of 5 through 13 |
|
|
VRIN
|
Variable Response Inconsistency Scale
Items: Pairs that should be answered the same direction RANDOM RESPONSE detection if > 80 Reasons for high score: lack of attention, fatigue, impulsive, MR, low concentration, low reading ability Raw score > 13 = invalid profile If respond all T or all F - T will be 50 Fake bad = average score High VRIN & high F = random response Low VRIN & High F = Fake bad or high psychopathology |
|
|
L Scale
|
Unsophisticated Lie Scale
T>55-65: faking good, defensive, claiming virtue, little insight T<50: probably responding frankly, trustworthy, can admit minor faults, socially reliant, may be exagerating psychopathology or malingering Defense mechanism: Denial Items: 15, all s/b true, rarely F, so if score F, get high score. Varies: by SES. S/b lower for higher SES |
|
|
Fake Bad Profile
|
^ or hat shape for:
L F K F > 100 (espec w/low VRIN) 6, 7 & 8 >80 often F - K (raw score) = 11+ (But note F = 80 - 99 can be cry for help) TRIN & VRIN = average |
|
|
Fake Good Profile
|
v shape
LFK K>65 L>55 S>65 F, Fb and Fp < average F - K (raw score)= negative number (no cutoff)(not as much research as Fake Bad profile) |

F scale

Distress Scale - INfrequency Scale - Deviancy Scale
INVALID IF > 90 TAPS: paranoia, antisocial, hostility, ill health Items: 90% of sample scored in one direction; get score if ct endorses in other. Validity: doubtful if >100 esp if VRIN >80 T> 100: random response; mostly T to items; fake bad 80<T<99: call for help, mostly F to items, resistant, psychotic 60<T<80: Psychopathology, Deviant social, political or religious convictions, severe disorders 50<T<65: particular problem w/adequate fx, dissatisfied, or normal! T<50: Free of disabling psychopathology, socially conforming, may "fake good" HIGH scores assoc w/elevated clinical scales and deviant test taking attitude VARIES: Adolescents and AA 10+ points higher |
|
|
K Scale
|

May have above average ego strength if scales not elevated 40<T<65: healthy self evaluation, well adjusted, Unusual frankness and self-critical attitude T<40: may have responded true mostly, fake bad, exagerating problems as plea for help, self-critical, may be psychotic |
