The [[Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI)]] is a psychological test first published in 1943 to assess personality traits and diagnose mental health disorders. It quickly became widely used in clinical settings.
The **MMPI-2**, published in 1989, is a revised version that updates the original test to reflect modern language and norms, ensuring its continued relevance. It includes reworded questions and new normative data, making it more reliable for diverse populations.
The MMPI-2 is especially useful in legal settings, such as child custody cases, personal injury claims, and criminal trials, providing research-backed insights into an individual's emotional and psychological state.
The MMPI-2 is the most widely used test of adult psychopathology for diagnosis and treatment planning.
