Our study examined the relationship between the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) and the Scale for the Assessment of Positive Symptoms (SAPS; Andreason, 1984) and the Scale for the Assessment of Negative Symptoms (SANS; Andreason, 1983) in patients who met the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (3rd ed., rev.; American Psychiatric Association, 1987) diagnostic criteria for schizophrenia (n = 125). A significant correlation was found between the SAPS Delusions scale and Scale 6 (Paranoia), the SAPS Positive Thought Disorder Scale and Scale F (Infrequency), and the SAPS Positive Thought Disorder and Scale 9 (Hypomania). Additional analysis also shows, however, that severity of symptoms was the best predictor of MMPI scores. Consistent with previous studies, the MMPI appears useful for screening but not for the detailed evaluation of symptomatology of schizophrenic patients.
我们的研究考察了明尼苏达多相人格问卷(MMPI)与阳性症状评定量表(SAPS;Andreason,1984)以及阴性症状评定量表(SANS;Andreason,1983)在符合《精神疾病诊断与统计手册》(第3版,修订版;美国精神病学协会,1987)精神分裂症诊断标准的患者(n = 125)中的关系。结果发现,SAPS的妄想量表与第6量表(偏执)、SAPS的阳性思维障碍量表与F量表(罕见回答)以及SAPS的阳性思维障碍与第9量表(轻躁狂)之间存在显著相关性。然而,进一步分析还表明,症状严重程度是MMPI分数的最佳预测指标。与先前的研究一致,MMPI似乎对筛查有用,但对精神分裂症患者症状学的详细评估则不然。
