MMPI-2 patterns in African-American females.

Researchers have reported conflicting conclusions about the relation of the MMPI (MMPI-2) clinical scale elevations and race. Consequently, this study examined the concurrent validity of the MMPI-2 in evaluating African-American females. Seventy-eight (78) African American college student volunteers were administered the MMPI-2, along with other measures of personality, achievement, and coping style. Scores revealed 76% of the sample had elevated profiles. Subjects were divided into three groups based on frequency of clinical scale code type. Subjects with the 5/9 profile elevations functioned as well as normals on measures of coping skills and mood disorders. Discussion emphasizes the importance of clinical interpretation of MMPI data in research programs and the relationship of the data to coping style.
