This study investigated the differential responding of 49 male and 92 female college students to subtle and obvious MCMI scale items. It had been predicted that item subtlety would be correlated positively with item endorsement. This prediction was supported across all 175 MCMI items (r = .34). In addition, subjects endorsed a greater percentage of subtle than obvious subscale items for eight Basic Personality scales and two of three Pathological Personality scales. However, this pattern was not consistent for the nine Symptom Disorder scales. It also had been predicted that gender would moderate subjects' differential responding to subtle and obvious items, whereby males would show a greater tendency than females to endorse relatively more subtle than obvious items. This prediction was not supported.
本研究调查了49名男大学生和92名女大学生对明尼苏达多项人格调查表(MCMI)量表中微妙和明显项目的不同反应。研究预测,项目的微妙程度将与项目认可呈正相关。这一预测在所有175个MCMI项目中均得到支持(r = 0.34)。此外,在八个基本人格量表和三个病理人格量表中的两个量表上,被试认可的微妙分量表项目的百分比高于明显分量表项目。然而,这种模式在九个症状障碍量表中并不一致。研究还预测,性别会调节被试对微妙和明显项目的不同反应,即男性比女性更倾向于认可相对更多的微妙项目而非明显项目。这一预测未得到支持。
