Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-3

This 7-hour on-demand workshop introduces the MMPI-3, the most up-to-date, newly normed version of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory. In this course, test co-author, Dr. Yossef Ben-Porath, describes the rationale for, and methods used to develop, the MMPI-3, including the background and development, norms and test documentation, scales, interpretive guidelines, and case illustrations.

This learning track, consisting of seven parts, focuses on using the MMPI-3 Public Safety Candidate Interpretive Reports (PSCIRs) in combination with measures of normal personality, collateral/background information, and clinical interview findings to determine a candidate’s psychological suitability for public safety work. Additional topics will include legal considerations and best practices. Participants will have access to this course for one year. 

This advanced, 3-hour on-demand workshop is intended for psychologists familiar with the MMPI instruments and interested in learning about conducting diversity-sensitive assessments with the latest version, the MMPI-3. The workshop will include a brief overview of the MMPI-3, a review and discussion of literature pertaining to use of the MMPI instruments with members of various demographic groups in the United States, a review of cross-national adaptations of the MMPI instruments, and recommended best practices for diversity-sensitive assessment with the MMPI-3. Case studies will illustrate diversity-sensitive assessment with the MMPI-3. Participants will have access to this course for one year. 

This training is designed for individuals who have completed the Administration, Scoring, and Basic Interpretation training, and/or reviewed the MMPI-3 Training Modules or are otherwise familiar with the updated version of the test. Attendees will further develop their MMPI-3 interpretation knowledge and skills by acquiring greater familiarity with the development of the MMPI-3 Validity Scales, as well as the normative changes and their implications for interpretation. Participants will have access to this course for one year.
