[Mini-Mult 82: review and standardization of short version of the MMPI questionnaire]

The correction norms for the Mini-Mult 82 (71 items from Kincannon's MMPI short form, plus 11 representative items from 5(Mf) Scale from the same test--developed by the authors--) are presented. A 1,343 normal, over 15-year-old Costarrican subjects sample was tested. Correction norms were obtained successfully. More reliable scores were obtained by using the Mini-Mult 82 as an independent test (i.e. without MMPI's score predictions). Statistical differences in F, 1(Hs), 2(D), 3(Hy), 4(Pd), 5(Mf) and 8(Sc) scales were found when gender was controlled. "T" scores were computed for raw scores on each scale. Additional research is suggested to improve the test's reliability and validity characteristics.
