The relationship of parent personality to child psychopathology has been investigated in numerous MMPI studies over the past three decades. Very few of these studies, however, have directly analyzed MMPI response patterns of both parents and offspring. The current study included the MMPI responses of 199 families with adolescents entering inpatient and outpatient psychiatric setting (N = 542). Inpatient parents and adolescents had significantly higher mean scores across a variety of MMPI scales than did their outpatient counterparts. The linear combination of adolescent and maternal MMPI scale data, in a stepwise discriminative function analysis, resulted in accurate classification of 75% of all children in inpatient treatment and 74% of all children assigned to outpatient treatment. Findings were discussed in terms of salient MMPI differences between inpatient and outpatient families and shared psychopathological characteristics among family members with offspring in psychiatric treatment settings.
在过去三十年中，众多明尼苏达多相人格调查表（MMPI）研究对父母人格与儿童精神病理学之间的关系进行了调查。然而，这些研究中很少有直接分析父母和子女的MMPI反应模式的。当前的研究纳入了199个有青少年进入住院和门诊精神科环境的家庭的MMPI反应（N = 542）。住院患者的父母和青少年在各种MMPI量表上的平均得分显著高于门诊患者。在逐步判别函数分析中，青少年和母亲MMPI量表数据的线性组合对75%的住院治疗儿童和74%分配到门诊治疗的儿童进行了准确分类。研究结果根据住院和门诊家庭之间显著的MMPI差异以及在精神科治疗环境中有子女的家庭成员之间共有的精神病理学特征进行了讨论。
