THE MINNESOTA MULTIPHASIC PERSONALITY INVENTORY (MMPI) AND THE EDWARDS PERSONAL PREFERENCE SCHEDULE (EPPS): A FACTOR ANALYTIC STUDY.

The EPPS and MMPI findings with 130 college males and females were factor analyzed. This yielded 10 factors of varying degrees of clarity. A validity factor was derived and its status discussed at length. A descriptive analysis was made of the 10 factors that emerged. In addition, the composition of these factors was evaluated in terms of the test from which their significantly loaded components emerged. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
