Originally published in 1987, the objective of this volume was to provide a clear and comprehensive review of the literature in the area of adolescents and the MMPI based on the research studies that had occurred in the previous 40 years. It was written to provide the reader with an appreciation and understanding of the research that had occurred, as well as to highlight areas in which crucial research had essentially not occurred, such as systematic and ongoing investigations of the accuracy of clinical descriptive statements for adolescents based on adolescent and adult correlate data. The volume also attempts to provide a developmental perspective through which to understand adolescent response patterns as well as a clear discussion of the empirical implications of using adult and adolescent norm conversions for adolescent respondents. A series of direct, concrete recommendations are offered for the scoring and interpretation of adolescent response patterns, along with the empirical foundations on which these suggestions are based. Finally, this book provides a description of norm development projects at the time and future research directions.

In this study, 224 ninth graders from two similar Kentucky towns were obtained by means of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory. They were divided into various groups and analyzed in relation to a number of background factors and their resulting personality patterns. The emergence of various group patterns in this study demonstrates that the complexity of human personality necessitates complex analytic procedures.

Dr. Archer's 1987 text, "Using the MMPI With Adolescents," received outstanding critical reviews and served as a comprehensive guide to the application of the original MMPI with teenagers. This text included a series of practical recommendations concerning the interpretive practices uniquely suited for this age group. The University of Minnesota Press has recently developed the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory - Adolescent (MMPI-A) which represents the first revision of the MMPI for use specifically with adolescents. As a member of the University of Minnesota Adolescent Project Committee responsible for the development of the MMPI-A, Dr. Archer is uniquely qualified to provide an in-depth introduction to this new instrument. The MMPI-A features the release of new dolescent norms based on a contemporary sample of 1620 adolescents, the revision of many traditional items to increase readability and relevance to adolescent development and psychopathology, and the inclusion of new items and scales. This guide was written to provide facts and recommendations on the essential features of the MMPI-A for those clinicians, students, and researchers interested in understanding and using this new instrument. The text reviews the reasons for the development of the MMPI-A, and discusses its salient features including new validity, content, and supplementary scales. MMPI-A single-scale and codetype correlates are presented, as well as clinical case examples illustrating interpretive principles. Throughout this book, emphasis is placed on presenting information that is of direct clinical relevance for practitioners, while also providing sufficient technical information and research data to serve as a guide for research efforts in this field.
