An important objective of child abuse research has been to develop psychometric instruments for use in predicting potential abusers. Nine MMPI scales which have been developed to identify the personality traits of potential abusers were assessed with another sample of known abusers (n=19). The results of this cross-validation study showed that all nine scales appropriately classified a lower percentage of the abusers than in the derivation sample. The validities of these MMPI scales for clinical use is questionable. |
