Interpreting the MMPI-3

""Interpreting the MMPI-3 delivers far more than its title promises. In this immensely readable volume, Yossef S. Ben-Porath and Martin Sellbom provide readers not only with a nuanced and evidence-based understanding of the constructs measured by the MMPI-3 and a detailed interpretive framework, but also the historical context and rationale for this latest test revision. Readers seeking a thorough summary of the validity evidence supporting the MMPI-3’s interpretive inferences will not be disappointed. Readers hoping to gain practical guidance on using the test in both clinical and applied assessments will be equally satisfied.""—David M. Corey, PhD, ABPP, private practice, forensic, and police/public safety psychology   ""Recent surveys of accredited psychology training programs indicate that the MMPI-3 is the most prominent assessment tool in the field. Mastery of the test requires the deeper knowledge and understanding that come from the historical, theoretical, and empirical information provided in this text. I would certainly expect it to be the first on the list of required books for the personality assessment courses in graduate programs in health service psychology. It presents a current, scholarly, and very readable description of the MMPI-3 specifically and the field of psychological assessment more generally.""—David M. McCord, PhD, Western Carolina University
