MMPI scores are what type of score, and what is the mean and SD of these types of score?

T-scores, mean = 50, SD = 10, clinical population = 65 and higher

Millon - three basic polarities

Pleasure vs. pain, passive vs. active, self vs. other

Millon: functional / structural domains (4)

Behavioral, phenomenological, intrapsychic, and biophysical

Millon: behavioral domains (2)

Expressive acts, interpersonal conduct

Millon: phenomenological (3)

Cognitive style, self-image, object representations

Millon: Intrapsychic domains (2)

Regulatory mechanisms, morphologic organization

Millon - Biophysical domains (1)

Mood / temperment

Base Rates (definition, what test uses them?)

MCMI, cutting scores are based on percentages of patients who are actually found to be disordered across diagnostic settings

How are T-scores different from base rates?

T-scores are developed so that a fixed percentage falls above a particular cutting score, assuming that the prevalence rates of all disorders are equal

Millon: Functional Processes

Expressive Acts


Interpersonal Conduct


Cognitive Style


Regulatory Mechanisms

Millon: Structural Attributes

Self-image


Object representations


Morphologic organization


Mood/temperment

Why is the Myers Briggs not considered a personality test?

Doesn't measure test-taking attitude (i.e. validity scales)

Content Validity

How well the item content of the scale represents all facets of a given concept

Construct Validity

Whether a scale correlates with a theorized psychological construct

Validity Generalization

How well the test scores relate to the real world (i.e. predictive validity, external validity, ecological validity, criterion validity, etc.)
