Abstract

Correlational analysis of 236 normal males revealed that (1) age was negatively related to Scales F, Pt, and Sc; (2) with age and intelligence partialed out, education was positively related to Scales L, K, and Ma, but negatively to Scale Si; and (3) with age and education partialed out, intelligence was negatively related to L and positively to Mf. All multiple correlations using age, education, and intelligence as predictor variables and MMPI scales as criterion variables resulted in significant correlations except those involving Hs and D scales.
