  • Title: An MMPI sign to separate organic from functional psychiatric patients.
    Author: Watson CG, Plemel D, Jacobs L.
    Journal: J Clin Psychol; 1978 Apr; 34(2):398-401. PubMed ID: 681515.
    Abstract:
    Evaluated the utilities of all 90 possible unweighted additive/subtractive two-scale MMPI combinations as indices to separate brain-damaged from functional patient groups in a Veterans Administration psychiatric hospital. One index, Hs-PT, showed more promise than any of the other 89. Hs-PT mean scores were significantly higher among organics than among alcoholics, neurotics, affective psychoses, character disorders, process schizophrenics or reactive schizophrenics. Interpretative information on the Hs-PT index was presented.
