We examined the ability of scores on the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2-Restructured Form (MMPI-2-RF) scales to predict treatment progress (compliance and activity in therapy) and outcome at termination (success in therapy, readiness for termination, and functioning at termination).
Our sample included 448 (185 males, 263 females) community mental health center outpatients with an average age of 32.2 years (standard deviation = 10.2). We used MMPI-2-RF (self-report) indicators of personality and psychopathology and a composite outcome variable that represents therapist ratings of clients' treatment progress and outcomes.
Scores on several MMPI-2-RF scales were correlated and associated with increased risk for poorer psychotherapy progress and outcomes in a mental health outpatient sample.
Clinicians can utilize the MMPI-2-RF to identify clients at risk for therapy process challenges and adverse outcomes, suggesting possible problem areas for intervention.
我们考察了明尼苏达多相人格测验-2 修订版（MMPI-2-RF）各分量表的得分预测治疗进展（治疗中的依从性和活动）和治疗结束时的结果（治疗成功、治疗结束时的准备情况以及治疗结束时的功能）的能力。
我们的样本包括 448 名（185 名男性，263 名女性）社区心理健康中心门诊患者，平均年龄为 32.2 岁（标准差=10.2）。我们使用 MMPI-2-RF（自我报告）人格和精神病理学指标以及代表治疗师对患者治疗进展和结果的综合评定变量。
在心理健康门诊患者样本中，MMPI-2-RF 的几个分量表的得分与治疗进展和结果较差的风险增加相关。
临床医生可以使用 MMPI-2-RF 来识别治疗过程中存在挑战和不良结果风险的患者，这表明可能需要干预的问题领域。
