An attempt was made to identify the empirical correlates of an MMPI configuration involving Scales 4 (Pd), 5 (Mf), and 6 (Pa) in a sample of 21 female psychiatric outpatients. Two sets of comparisons were derived. In the first comparison, 21 4-5-6 and control patients were matched on age and contrasted on selected behavioral and self-report measures. Results suggested that 4-5-6 patients displayed greater ambivalence, depression, and lack of social skills than control patients. In the second comparison, 18 4-5-6 and control females were matched on profile similarity (excluding Scales 4, 5, and 6) using the D2 procedure and then compared on various behavioral and self-report measures. This comparison showed fewer and somewhat different (indecision, need for affection) correlates relative to the age-matched group. These findings are discussed in terms of implementing appropriate procedures when defining control groups for the study of MMPI profile patterns.

This investigation was directed toward studying the relationship between parent-child personality similarity and adolescent aggression and to illustrate the utility of a general method of assessing profile similarity suggested by Overall (1964). Peer and teacher ratings of aggression were used to group eighth-grade boys on manifest aggression. Ss and their parents (volunteers) were administered the MMPI. The d∗ measure of dissimilarity was used to compare parent-child profile configurations in the three aggression groups. Although the small and biased sample preclude major conclusions, the results support the use of the d∗ statistic for assessing MMPI profile similarity and suggest that further work in the area of parent-child personality similarity might be fruitful.

The present study examines the association of fear of personal death and aspects of psychological maladjustment and the moderating impact of personal losses. Ninety-seven middle-aged Israeli males completed the MMPI, a brief scale on personal loss experiences, and the Fear of Personal Death Scale. Results revealed that the MMPI profile was significantly related to the pattern of fear of personal death. This association, however, only reached significance among the middle-aged men who had not experienced personal losses. In addition, respondents who had experienced personal losses reported higher levels of fear of personal death than respondents who had not experienced any personal loss. Results were discussed from a multidimensional perspective of fear of death.

The 2600 community adult subjects tested in the 1989 MMPI restandardization project by Butcher, Dahlstrom Graham, Tellegen, and Kaemmer were grouped on the basis of their astrological sign the year of their birth in the oriental yearly cycle, and the day of the week on which they were born. Analyses of variance were carried out on the T scores of the basic MMPI profile scales for both males and females on each of these categories. No effect size ( R2) larger than 2% was obtained on any scale in these analyses. No evidence was found in support of these folklore concepts. Discussion focused on the continuing paucity of empirical research on and support for these notions.
