abstract="Since its introduction, the MMPI-2 has been used as an equivalent to the MMPI. However, the clinical correlates of MMPI-2 profiles are still being investigated. This study examined the MMPI-2 profiles of 217 male pre-trial defendants. Data indicated mean scale elevations over 65 on F, 8, 6, 7, 4, 2, and 1 (in descending order); and mean content scale elevations on DEP, BIZ, HEA, and TRT. The most frequently elevated scales were 6, F, and 2. The most frequently elevated content scales were CYN, DEP, and ANX. The most common 2-point code was a 6-8/8-6 for subjects charged with both violent and nonviolent offenses. The F-K Index was greater than 11 in 22% of the subjects. Generalizability of these data and suggestions for future research are discussed.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
