Therapeutic effects of providing MMPI-2 test feedback to clients at a university counseling service: a collaborative approach
Article Abstract:
The therapeutic value of providing Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2 (MMPI-2) assessment feedback to clients is analyzed. Sixty college students completed the MMPI-2 and other outcome measures. Thirty participants belonging to the experimental group received MMPI-2 test feedback and 30 participants in the control group received delayed feedback. Results showed that clients in the experimental group reported a considerable increase in self-esteem and decline in symptomatic distress compared with the control group.
