Question 1
pts
What has recent research discovered with respect to the relationship between the MMPI-2 RF
and the MCMI-III?
The MCMI-III was shown to be an inferior, incomplete measure as compared to the MMPI-2.
Clinicians using both measures arrived at the same clinical diagnoses for patient vignettes,
showing clinical utility for both measures.
The measures diverged completely when measuring neuroticism, showing that it is not a stable
construct.
Correct!
Four common, higher order-factors emerged, showing fundamental overlap.
The answer can be found in Section 10.3 Assessing Personality Disorders, in Personality
Question 2

All of these were used to develop the MMPI.
By using factor analysis to extrapolate traits from normal populations that would predict later
psychiatric illness.
Correct!
, By collecting responses from normal controls and comparing them to responses of those with a
particular psychiatric diagnosis.
By interviewing thousands of people in person and coding their responses.
The answer can be found in Section 10.3 Assessing Personality Disorders, in Personality
Question 3
pts
Why might personality disorders be underrepresented in clinical settings?
People with personality disorders often drive away and alienate others that may have convinced
or coerced them to get help.
A defining feature of personality disorders is that the person has no idea he or she is having
problems functioning.
Correct Answer
A defining feature of personality disorders is that they are stable and lifelong, and there are no
acute problems or changes in functioning to motivate the patient to seek help.
You Answered
People with personality disorders tend to fill their lives with similar people, thereby validating
their behavior and reducing the likelihood of help seeking.
The answer can be found in Section 10.2 Types of Personality Disorders, in Personality
Question 4
pts
What has been the conclusion of research involving the five factor model and the DSM approach
for classifying personality disorders?
You Answered
Due to large differences in the language used to describe disorders in the DSM and the five
factor model, a relationship could not be determined.
