This book provides a beginner's introduction to the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory Revised (MMPI-2), the most widely researched and broadly used personality assessment instrument in psychology. The author investigates the developmental rationale and the broad personality and symptomatic measures of the instrument, as well as the essential strategies for interpreting MMPI-2 profiles and communicating the results of testing when appropriate. The various measures contained on the MMPI-2 are described and generously illustrated with case material. Equally useful as an introduction for nonpsychologist professionals and as an introductory text for students of clinical and personality assessment, A Beginner's Guide to the MMPI-2, is the best way for interested readers to "get their feet wet" in the why and wherefore of this frequently used and highly respected psychological instrument.
Book Review
[T]he book is very clearly written, and by the man most qualified to do so…The best endorsement I can give this book is that as a devoted user of [MMPI-2] for more that 25 years, I learned some new things from it.
—The Journal Neuropsychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences, 12:1, Winter 2000
