Applicants' Fraud in Law Enforcement
Applicants' fraud in the form of “self-inflation” bias discriminates against the “honest” applicant who does not engage in a deceptive self-presentation. The MMPI dissimulation index is one measure of “self-inflation” or “faking-good,” which, in this study, was used to assess whether the index differentiated police applicants on the basis of disciplinary suspension days. A statistically significant relationship was observed. A 16-point T-score di…
Mmpi: Scoring Changes
This brief paper serves further to alert users of MMPI self-scoring templates to scoring changes with the 1983 revised templates
Truncated Component Regression, Multicollinearity And The MMPI's Use In A Police Officer Selection Setting
The clinical scales of the MMPI are highly intercorrelated (multicollinear). Theoretical considerations suggest, therefore, that multiple correlations between these scales and criterion measures will be inflated; yet this possible inflation has not been examined empirically in MMPI research. A suggested method for use with multicollinear measures is truncated component regression (TCR). The technique involves use of principal components instead o…
Screening of Police Applicants: A 5-Item MMPI Research Index
The usefulness and validity of various personality tests in the selection of police officers has been recently considered. This study examines use of the MMPI to differentiate successfully between acceptable and unacceptable police candidates. An item analysis of the MMPI is presented, and five items which significantly differentiated the groups are combined in an index. The statistical errors of inference in a simulated selection procedure are e…
Screening Police Applicants: A Study of Reliability with the MMPI
The problem of selecting candidates for law enforcement agencies is difficult and poorly understood. Behavioral scientists are becoming more involved as consultants to police departments and are being asked to validate current selection procedures. The MMPI is being used as a screening device. This study explored the interrater reliability of two experienced judges using the MMPI “clinically” in a simulated selection procedure. The judges used ma…
Altruism and Authoritarianism and Their Relationship to Number of Referrals Made by Crisis-Center Volunteers
This research investigated some characteristics which differentiate volunteers and how these differences affect the manner in which crisis telephone callers are handled
Selection of Volunteers for Telephone Crisis Intervention Centers
This research explores the selection of telephone crisis-intervention volunteers. Both demographic information and personality variables differentiate 30 accepted from 30 rejected volunteers and also differentiate 15 highest rated from 15 lowest rated volunteers
Grief in the Navajo: Psychodynamics and Culture
The Navajo Indian: A Descriptive Study of the Psychiatric Population
This is a descriptive study of 348 new cases coming to the attention of the Mental Health team serving the Navajo Indian. Tribal affiliation, sex, marital status, age, type of schooling, religion, referral source, disposition, and primary diagnosis are presented and discussed
Suicide Attempt Patterns Among the Navajo Indians
THIS IS A REPORT of seven and one-half months of an on-going study of suicide and suicide attempts among the Navajo people. The study was undertaken in order to define the magnitude of the problem and to identify the high risk population. To date there have been only a few studies on successful suicides and even less on suicide attempts. A suicide report form was constructed. Copies were made available to all facilities serving the Navajo Indian …
