This study examined the extent to which the validity scales of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-Adolescent (MMPI-A; Butcher et al., 1992) could identify adolescents who were faking-bad. This study also examined the extent to which the validity scales could differentiate between nonclinical adolescents instructed to fake-bad and both clinical and nonclinical adolescents who received standard instructions. Participants were 58 male and 80 female high school students and 58 male and 80 female adolescents from clinical settings. Results indicated that the mean profiles resembled those previously reported for adults on the MMPI (Graham, 1987) and MMPI-2 (Graham, Watts, & Timbrook, 1991) and for adolescents on the original MMPI (Archer, Gordon, & Kirchner, 1987). Accurate identification of students who were faking-bad was achieved. It was possible to differentiate between the clinical adolescents and nonclinical adolescents who were faking, and it was possible to differentiate between nonclinical adolescents who were faking and nonclinical adolescents with standard instructions; however, different cutoff scores were needed for these two discriminations. Optimal cutoff scores were presented.
本研究考察了明尼苏达多相人格调查表青少年版（MMPI-A；布彻等人，1992）的效度量表在多大程度上能够识别伪装不良的青少年。本研究还考察了效度量表在多大程度上能够区分被指示伪装不良的非临床青少年与接受标准指导语的临床和非临床青少年。参与者包括58名男性和80名女性高中生，以及58名男性和80名来自临床机构的青少年。结果表明，平均剖面图与先前报告的成年人在MMPI（格雷厄姆，1987）和MMPI-2（格雷厄姆、瓦茨和廷布鲁克，1991）上的剖面图以及青少年在原始MMPI（阿彻、戈登和基尔希纳，1987）上的剖面图相似。成功准确识别了伪装不良的学生。能够区分伪装的临床青少年和非临床青少年，也能够区分伪装的非临床青少年和接受标准指导语的非临床青少年；然而，这两种区分需要不同的临界分数。给出了最佳临界分数。
