The extent of codetype agreement between the revised version of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI-2) and estimated MMPI profiles was examined in a sample of 121 inpatients being treated for chemical dependence, primarily alcoholism. Rates of codetype agreement among the entire sample and various subsamples are comparable to those reported elsewhere derived for different samples and using different methods. Implications for MMPI-2 codetype interpretation are discussed.

The reliability of six Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-Second edition (MMPI-2) computer-based test interpretation (CBTI) programs was evaluated across a set of 20 commonly appearing MMPI-2 profile codetypes in clinical settings. Evaluation of CBTI reliability comprised examination of (a) interrater reliability, the degree to which raters arrive at similar inferences based on the same CBTI profile and (b) interprogram reliability, the level of agreement across different CBTI systems. Profile inferences drawn by four raters were operationalized using q-sort methodology.

A sample of 519 MMPI-2 profiles that had been classified into database profile code types by these two methods was studied. Resulting code-type matches were classified into three groups: identical (30%), similar (39%), and different (31%), and the profile characteristics of profile elevation, dispersion, and profile code-type definition were studied.

The Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory (MCMI) profiles of 69 active duty male soldiers who presented to an outpatient mental health clinic for a broad range of problems are compared to a local normative sample of 84 males. The clinical and comparison groups differed significantly on all 20 scales. In agreement with previous findings, the mean profile for the clinical group was a 2 (Avoidant)-8 (Passive-Aggressive) codetype, whereas the comparison group showed a 5 (Narcissistic)-6 (Antisocial) codetype.
