Abstract

This study was conducted to examine the concurrent validity of the MMPI-A (Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-Adolescent) in an adolescent offender setting. From a sample of 50 court-adjudicated youths participating in an outpatient counseling program, 42 valid MMPI-A profiles were obtained, 33 of which were accompanied by counselor ratings of behavior problems. The highest mean elevations on the MMPI-A were on scales MAC-R (MacAndrew Alcoholism Scale-Revised), A-Con (Adolescent Conduct Problems), A-Sch (Adolescent School Problems), Pd (Psychopathic Deviate), and IMM (Adolescent Immaturity). Counselor ratings of behavior problems correlated highly with scales ACK (Alcohol and Drug Acknowledgment Scale), A-Sch, A-Ang (Adolescent Anger Problems), Ma (Hypomania), and PRO (Alcohol/Drug Problem Proneness). This pattern of results supports the concurrent validity of the MMPI-A for use in this setting.

摘要

本研究旨在检验明尼苏达多相人格问卷青少年版（MMPI-A）在青少年罪犯群体中的同时效度。从参与门诊咨询项目的50名经法庭判决的青少年样本中，获得了42份有效的MMPI-A剖面图，其中33份伴有咨询师对行为问题的评分。MMPI-A上平均得分最高的量表是MAC-R（修订版麦安德酒精中毒量表）、A-Con（青少年行为问题）、A-Sch（青少年学校问题）、Pd（精神病态偏差）和IMM（青少年不成熟）。咨询师对行为问题的评分与ACK量表（酒精和药物认知量表）、A-Sch、A-Ang（青少年愤怒问题）、Ma（轻躁狂）和PRO（酒精/药物问题倾向）高度相关。这一结果模式支持了MMPI-A在该群体中使用的同时效度。
