A new addition to the validity scales for the MMPI-2-RF includes an over reporting scale of somatic symptoms (F S) as well as revised versions of the validity scales of the MMPI-2 (VRIN-r, TRIN-r, F-r, F P-r, FBS-r, L-r, and K-r). The MMPI-2-RF does not include the S or F B scales, and the F-r scale now covers the entirety of the test. [48]
The University of Minnesota Press published a new version of the MMPI-2, the MMPI-2 Restructured Form (MMPI-2-RF), in 2008. [4] The MMPI-2-RF builds on the Restructured Clinical (RC) Scales developed in 2003, [1] with an overriding goal of improved discriminant validity, or the ability of the test to reliably differentiate between clinical ...
This rudimentary computerized interpretation is not far off from the methods used today. [3] In 1969, the first program able to generate narrative reports based on scale configurations was released. [4] By 1985, it was estimated that as many as 1.5 million MMPI protocols had been interpreted by computer-based test interpretation (CBTI) programs ...
The Lees-Haley Fake Bad Scale (FBS) or MMPI Symptom Validity Scale is a set of 43 items in the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI), selected by Paul R. Lees-Haley in 1991 to detect malingering for the forensic evaluation of personal injury claimants. [1]
The validity scales measure the respondent's overall approach to the test, including faking good or bad, exaggeration, defensiveness, carelessness, or random responding. Inconsistency (ICN) is the degree to which respondents answer similar questions in different ways.

A validity scale, in psychological testing, is a scale used in an attempt to measure reliability of responses, for example with the goal of detecting defensiveness, ...
Many large-scale clinical tests are normed. For example, scores on the MMPI are rescaled such that 50 is the middlemost score on the MMPI Depression scale and 60 is a score that places the individual one standard deviation above the mean for depressive symptoms; 40 represents a symptom level that is one standard deviation below the mean.
