- 1. MMPI-3 Presenter: Poonam Garg ClinicalPsychologist CRR No: A62726 Psychiatric Centre, SMS , Jaipur Member of Juvenile Board, Jaipur
- 2. Introduction The MinnesotaMultiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) was developed in 1937 by clinical psychologist Starke R. Hathaway and neuropsychiatrist J. Charnley McKinley at the University of Minnesota. The goal was to develop an instrument that could be used as an objective tool for assessing different psychiatric conditions and their severity. • 1100 original items and was cut down to 566 by the time it was first published.
- 3. How the MMPIIs Used The MMPI is most commonly used by mental health professionals to assess and diagnose mental illness, but it has also been utilized in other fields outside of clinical Psychology. The MMPI-2 is often used in legal cases, including criminal defense and custody disputes. The test has also been used as a screening instrument for certain professions, especially high-risk jobs, although using it in this manner has been controversial. It's also used to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment programs, including substance use programs.
- 4. Taking the MMPITest The MMPI-2 contains 567 test items and takes approximately 60 to 90 minutes to complete. The MMPI-2-RF contains 338 questions and takes around 35 to 50 minutes to finish. The MMPI-3 contains 335 self-report items and takes 25 to 35 minutes to administer by computer and 35 to 40 minutes to administer by paper and pencil. Additionally, the MMPI is copyrighted by the University of Minnesota, which means clinicians must pay to administer and utilize the test. The MMPI test should be used with other assessment tools as well. A diagnosis should never be made solely on the results of the MMPI.
- 5. Types of MMPITest • MMPI-2: The revised edition of the test was released in 1989 as the MMPI-2.The test received revision again in 2001 and updates in 2003 and 2009, and it's still in use today as the most frequently used clinical assessment test. • MMPI-2-RF: Another edition of the test, published in 2008, is known as the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2-Restructured Form (MMPI-2-RF), an alternative to the MMPI-2. • MMPI-A: There is also an MMPI, published in 1992, that's geared toward adolescents aged 14 to 18 years old called the MMPI-A. With 478 questions, it takes about an hour to complete. • MMPI-A-RF: In 2016, the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-Adolescent- Restructured Form (MMPI-A-RF) was published. Like the MMPI-2-RF, it's shorter, with just 241 questions that take 25 to 45 minutes to answer. • MMPI-3: The latest version of the instrument, MMPI-3, was released in 2020. The test takes 25 to 50 minutes to complete and is available in English, Spanish, and French for Canada formats.

Featuring new English-and Spanish-language norms and updated items and scales, the 335-item MMPI-3 builds on the history and strengths of the MMPI instruments to provide an empirically-validated, psychometrically up-to-date standard for psychological assessment. The MMPI-3 provides a contemporary assessment for mental health, medical, forensic, and public safety settings.
