I just took the MMPI-2. Taking and scoring the thing took so much time that the in-class explanation of what our results meant, plus any non-scoring class discussion of the test, must wait till next week. But for the record, my scores are below. Please feel free to interpret if you happen to know how. I think everything is in the "normal" range (below 65, IIRC) so I don't know how meaningful they are.
These are corrected T-scores, NOT raw scores. We didn't do all the validity scales, just the F, L, and K. There are ten validity scales. L is for lying. F flags statistically unusual answers. K corrects for unconsciously trying to make yourself look better.
My code-type (two highest scores) is 8/6, schizophrenic-paranoid. Uh-oh? Third-highest is psychasthenia (anxiety.) (Masculinity/femininity and introversion/extroversion don't count for those purposes.)
1 Hs Hypochondriasis Concern with bodily symptoms: 43
2 D Depression Depressive Symptoms: 47.
3 Hy Hysteria Awareness of problems and vulnerabilities: 45.
4 Pd Psychopathic Deviate Conflict, anger, respect for society's rules: 47.
5 MF Masculinity/Femininity Stereotypical masculine or feminine: 40.
6 Pa Paranoia Level of trust, suspiciousness, sensitivity: 56.
7 Pt Psychasthenia Worry, Anxiety, tension, doubts, obsessiveness: 48.
8 Sc Schizophrenia Odd thinking and social alienation: 59.
9 Ma Hypomania Level of excitability: 51.
0 Si Social Introversion People orientation: 55.
