Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) clinical scales as well as 4 sets of MMPI items known to be sensitive to neurological dysfunction (closed head injury, cerebrovascular disorder) were administered to survivors of childhood physical and/or sexual abuse and to non-abused adults. As predicted, relative to the comparison group of psychiatric patients, the abused participants scored significantly higher on Scale 8 (Schizophrenia) and on all 4 sets of items associated with neurological dysfunction. The results suggest that early abuse/trauma is associated with cognitive disturbances and somatization. Findings appear to support the conceptualization of these psychophysical experiences as a central part of what is often called "complex posttraumatic stress disorder." Limitations and suggestions for further study are discussed.
明尼苏达多相人格测验（MMPI）的临床量表，以及 4 组已知对神经功能障碍敏感的 MMPI 项目（闭合性头部损伤、脑血管疾病），被用于评估儿童期身体和/或性虐待幸存者以及未受虐待的成年人。正如预测的那样，与精神病患者的对照组相比，受虐待的参与者在量表 8（精神分裂症）和与神经功能障碍相关的所有 4 组项目上的得分显著更高。研究结果表明，早期的虐待/创伤与认知障碍和躯体化有关。这些发现似乎支持将这些身心体验概念化为通常所说的“复杂创伤后应激障碍”的核心部分。研究还讨论了限制因素和进一步研究的建议。
