2014.04.16 - Validity Plots (open only on apple computer)

Big Caveat: Preliminary numbers, next step is to check to make sure all the subsets add up to all the totals; double checking for mis-tallied items (of which I am certain there are a few!)

! ! 1) The total number of evaluations (no treatment) ! 337

!

2) The total number of multiple evaluations (no treatment). (I am often asked to evaluate the same person at intervals of several years, but don't treat)

! 49

! 3) The total number of evaluations that led to treatment ! 147

! 4) The total number of treatment patients for whom we have serial MMPI-2/RFs over the course of treatment ! 80

! 5) The number of MMPI-2 invalid protocols, broken down by validity scale ! 56

See Plot 1

See Plot 2 (same data, for first administration only)

! 6) The number of MMPI-2-RF invalid protocols, broken down by validity scale ! 74

See Plot 3

See Plot 4 (same data, for first administration only)

! 7) For all valid MMPI-2 protocols, the number of invalid MMPI-2-RF protocols: !

128 invalid MMPI-2-RF protocols, out of 582 valid MMPI-2- protocols

See Plot 5 for break-down by reason for invalidity

Break-down by MMPI-2 with (a) F/Fb>80 and Fp>100, (b) F/Fb>80 and Fp>90, and (c) F/Fb>80 and Fp>80

! 8) For all valid MMPI-2-RF protocols, the number of invalid MMPI-2 protocols: ! 13 invalid MMPI-2 protocols for all 643 valid MMPI-2-RF protocols

See Plot 6 for break-down by reason for invalidity

! 9) For all individuals with serial MMPI-2-RFs, plot of Higher Order Scales over time ! (EID, THD, BXD) pending

! 10) Extra test credibility data ! Solely causally related Aggravation of pre-existing condition Exaggeration but not fabrication Fabrication / non-credible

! Conflicting experts !
