  • Title: An investigation of the Mini-Mult validity scales.
    Author: Gayton WF, Bishop JS, Citrin MM, Bassett JS.
    Journal: J Pers Assess; 1975 Oct; 39(5):511-3. PubMed ID: 16367322.
    Abstract:
    Examined the ability of the Mini-Mult validity scales to detect invalid MMPI profiles. When 34 invalid MMPI profiles were rescored with the Mini-Mult only 17 of the 34 profiles invalidated by the full MMPI were detected with the Mini-Mult. This included 14 of 27 profiles invalidated by an elevated F scale; 2 of 4 profiles invalidated by an elevated L scale and 1 of 3 profiles invalidated by an elevated K scale. Only 14 of 27 profiles invalidated by an F-K ratio of K11 were detected. When new conversion values for the Mini-Mult were utilized, the detection rate improved considerably for the F scale and the F-K ratio.
