This study compared the MMPI scores of Central American refugees from Guatemala and El Salvador to those of Mexican immigrants. It was expected that subjects from Guatemala and El Salvador would obtain higher scores on the F, D, Pa, and Sc scales because these subjects came from "war-torn" countries. A multivariate analysis of variance yielded no significant differences between the three groups on any of the validity and clinical scales including F, D, Pa, and Sc. Recommendations for cross-national research are noted especially in light of the new version, or MMPI-2.
本研究比较了来自危地马拉和萨尔瓦多的中美洲难民与墨西哥移民的明尼苏达多相人格调查表（MMPI）得分。预计来自危地马拉和萨尔瓦多的受试者在F、D、Pa和Sc量表上会获得更高的分数，因为这些受试者来自“饱受战争蹂躏”的国家。多变量方差分析显示，在包括F、D、Pa和Sc在内的任何效度和临床量表上，三组之间均无显著差异。特别针对新版本即MMPI-2，提出了跨国研究的建议。
