Abstract

This study compared sex differences on the MMPI-2 to those previously found on the MMPI-1. Statistically significant differences were found with men (n = 66) showing higher mean raw scale scores on antisocial (men = 10.00, women = 7.15), authority problems (men = 4.58, women = 3.14), admission of addiction (men = 3.58, women = 2.74), amorality (men = 2.30, women = 1.61), and Type A (men = 8.24, women = 7.71). Women ( n= 132) showed higher mean raw scale scores on Hypochondriasis, Depression, Hysteria, Paranoia, Depression subscale, N affection, Health Concerns, and Somatic Complaints. With a few exceptions, these general patterns are consistent with previous research.
