Low scores often have been ignored in validity research on the MMPI, yet these statistically significant deviations from the norm may be valuable sources of information and occur frequently enough to merit further investigation. The meaning of low scores on the MMPI-2 was examined for 822 male-female partner pairs in the MMPI-2 restandardization sample. Subjects were divided by MMPI-2 scale scores into high-, medium-, and low-score groups. Analyses of variance were performed with score level as the independent variable and partner ratings as dependent variables. Significant differences were found between the low- and medium-score groups with low scorers rated as better adjusted that medium scorers. More significant differences were found between the high-score and medium-score groups than between the low-score and medium-score groups; this suggested that high scores on MMPI-2 clinical scales are associated with poorer adjustment.
在明尼苏达多相人格调查表（MMPI）的效度研究中，低分常常被忽视，然而这些与常模存在统计学显著差异的情况可能是有价值的信息来源，且出现频率足以值得进一步研究。在MMPI - 2重新标准化样本中，对822对男女伴侣进行了MMPI - 2低分含义的研究。根据MMPI - 2量表分数将受试者分为高分、中等分数和低分三组。以分数水平为自变量，伴侣评价为因变量进行方差分析。低分和中等分数组之间存在显著差异，低分者被评为比中等分数者适应性更好。高分和中等分数组之间的显著差异比低分和中等分数组之间更多；这表明MMPI - 2临床量表上的高分与较差的适应性有关。
