![]() Since the assessment of symptom exaggeration should be a multifactorial approach, incorporating these embedded measures of validity may provide additional information for neuropsychological assessments. Results of this study supported the clinical utility of the RBS, FBS-r, and Fs, though RBS demonstrated superior predictive utility by explaining performance above and beyond FBS-r and Fs. This study sought to examine the relationship between the RBS, Fs, and FBS-r over-reporting validity scales of the MMPI-2-RF, a stand-alone measure of symptom validity/cognitive effort, and neuropsychological indicators commonly used in assessment batteries. All MMPI-2-RF items are fully contained within the larger MMPI-2 and all IVIMPI-2-RE scales may be scored from a standard MMPI-2 administration. The present study evaluated the restandardized MMPI-2 for its accuracy in discriminating. ![]() Results: Malingerers averaged significantly higher FBS raw scores (25.3, s 6.7) than patients (15.8, s 4.7), and higher F (77.6 vs. Groups were compared on the FBS and standard MMPI-2 validity scales. The recently released MMPI-2-RF (Restructured Form), meanwhile, was designed to be a shorter and more efficient version of the MMPI-2. Although the original Minnesota multiphasic personality inventory (MMPI) showed promise in the psychometric discrimination of patients with epileptic seizures and pseudoseizures, inconsistencies and relatively low rates of accuracy have been reported. The MMPI-2 was also administered to 64 non-litigating patients hospitalized for treatment of head trauma. ![]() The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2 (MMPI-2) is the most widely used self-report measure of personality and psychopathology in the United States.
