MMPI-2 variables in attention and memory test performance

Article Abstract:

The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2 (MMPI-2) measures of depression, anxiety, and psychotic thinking are relevant to the interpretation of performance on neuropsychological tests of attention and memory. Although brain injury can affect attention and memory, psychological factors should be considered while interpreting test performance. The importance of using MMPI-2 measures is studied on 128 patients with closed-head injury and psychiatric disorder.
