Composite descriptions associated with rare MMPI two-point code types: codes that involve scale 5
1Detroit Receiving Hospital and University Health Center, MI 48201.
Abstract:
MMPI files of 1,016 prior patients were searched for protocols with two-point codes that involved scale 5. Sixty-one such protocols were found; these accounted for 6% of the sample. Salient characteristics of the cases were noted, and composite descriptions were developed for each of the code types. An additional 22 cases were located over the next 2 years in response to my requests for such profiles. Base rates from the original sample, as well as descriptive statistics and composite descriptions from the extended sample, are provided for each of the eight code types with the exception of the 5-0/0-5 code, which will be presented elsewhere.

Ordinal Level of Measurement
Data measured using an ordinal scale are similar to nominal scale data, but there is one major difference. The ordinal scale data can be ordered. An example of ordinal scale data is a list of the top five national parks in the...

Multiple Comparison Tests
It would be easy to compare two samples using a significance alpha level of 0.05. In other words, there is only one sample pair to be compared. However, it would be difficult to identify a significantly different sample if the number...
