Card versus booklet forms of the MMPI

Abstract

Correlation coefficients, means, and the standard deviations were computed for 68 male and 32 female college students to determine the equivalence of the card and booklet forms of the MMPI. Mean scores indicated that a slightly more elevated profile would be secured on a college population by use of the booklet form. Because of the tendency to score slightly higher on the booklet form, it is necessary to adjust individual diagnosis upward from card to booklet form or be resigned to an inequivalence of forms.
