1 Case Description: Karen Z. Inpatient Mental Health Interpretive Report REPORT Karen Z., a 35-year-old married woman, mother of two children, was admitted to a private inpatient psychiatric unit after her second suicide attempt. Although she has been taking antidepressant medication, her depressed moods have persisted. Two months earlier, her psychiatrist prescribed mitriptyline, which she reported did not help her mood and was extremely sedating. Ms Z. has a history of mental health contacts since she was 18 years of age, when she first sought help for her mood swings. At that time she was treated with antidepressants. Her depression became more sever three years ago, when she made her first suicide attempt. At that time, she underwent electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) after her medication failed to provide relief for her depression. She was able to return to work after her treatment. Ms Z. completed high school and a two-year associate s degree program at a community college. She has been employed in office management for a large insurance firm. Her husband, who is employed by the same company, is very supportive of her and assumes most of the home and family responsibilities during her depression.

7 MMPI -2 Inpatient Mental Health Interpretive Report 1/31/14, Page 5 Karen Z. PROFILE VALIDITY This MMPI-2 profile should be interpreted with caution. There is some possibility that the clinical report is an exaggerated picture of the client's present situation and problems. She is presenting an unusual number of psychological symptoms. This response set could result from poor reading ability, confusion, disorientation, stress, or a need to seek a great deal of attention for her problems. SYMPTOMATIC PATTERNS This report was developed using the D and Sc scales as the prototype. The client is quite depressed at this time. In addition, she exhibits a chronic pattern of alienation and isolation. She appears to be quite tense, anxious, and withdrawn. She is having a great deal of difficulty concentrating and cannot keep her mind on tasks. She appears to worry a lot and is functioning at a low level of efficiency as a result of her depressed mood. She may seem lethargic and apathetic and may show little interest in life. Life seems to have little meaning for her and she has scarce energy left over from mere survival to expend on any pleasures. Individuals with this profile often appear to be unable to feel pleasure as most people can. Life is drudgery for them. Her emotional life is flat and blunted. She may show some signs of a thought disorder in addition to an affective disorder. Many individuals with this profile consider committing suicide and she may actually have serious plans for self-destruction. Individuals with this MMPI-2 clinical profile tend to be faced with multiple problems resulting from a long-standing lack of achievement and ineffective work behavior. In addition, the following description is suggested by the client's scores on the content scales. She endorsed a number of items suggesting that she is experiencing low morale and a depressed mood. She reports a preoccupation with feeling guilty and unworthy. She feels that she deserves to be punished for wrongs she has committed. She feels regretful and unhappy about life, and she seems plagued by anxiety and worry about the future. She feels hopeless at times and feels that she is a condemned person. She endorsed response content that reflects low self-esteem and long-standing beliefs about her inadequacy. She has difficulty managing routine affairs, and the items she endorsed suggest a poor memory, concentration problems, and an inability to make decisions. She appears to be immobilized and withdrawn and has no energy for life. She views her physical health as failing and reports numerous somatic concerns. She feels that life is no longer worthwhile and that she is losing control of her thought processes. According to her response content, there is a strong possibility that she has seriously contemplated suicide. She acknowledged having suicidal thoughts recently. Although she denies suicidal attempts in the past, given her current mood, an evaluation of suicidal potential appears to be indicated. She is rather high-strung and believes that she feels things more, or more intensely, than others do. She feels quite lonely and misunderstood at times. Long-term personality factors identified by her PSY-5 scale elevations may help provide a clinical context for the symptoms she is presently experiencing. She shows a meager capacity to experience pleasure in life. Persons with high scores on INTR (Introversion/Low Positive Emotionality) tend to be pessimistic.
8 MMPI -2 Inpatient Mental Health Interpretive Report 1/31/14, Page 6 Karen Z. PROFILE FREQUENCY Profile interpretation can be greatly facilitated by examining the relative frequency of clinical scale patterns in various settings. The client's high-point clinical scale score (D) occurred in 7.0% of the MMPI-2 normative sample of women. However, only 4.4% of the women had D scale peak scores at or above a T score of 65, and only 2.1% had well-defined D spikes. This high MMPI-2 profile configuration (2-8/8-2) is very rare in samples of normals, occurring in less than 1% of the MMPI-2 normative sample of women. This high-point MMPI-2 score is very frequent among various samples of inpatient women. In the Graham and Butcher (1988) sample, the D scale occurred as the high point in 12.2% of the females (all of the cases were at or above a T score of 65, and 8.4% were well defined in that range). In the Pearson inpatient sample, the high-point clinical scale score on D occurred in 25.4% of the women. Moreover, 24.3% had the D scale spike at or over a T score of 65, and 13.8% produced well-defined D scale peak scores in that range. Her high MMPI-2 profile configuration (2-8/8-2) was found in 4.6% of the females in the Graham and Butcher (1988) sample and in 4.0% of the females in the Pearson inpatient sample. PROFILE STABILITY The relative elevation of her highest clinical scale scores suggests some lack of clarity in profile definition. Although her most elevated clinical scales are likely to be present in her profile pattern if she is retested at a later date, there could be some shifting of the most prominent scale elevations in the profile code. The difference between the profile type used to develop the present report (involving D and Sc) and the next highest scale in the profile code was 3 points. So, for example, if the client is tested at a later date, her profile might involve more behavioral elements related to elevations on Hy. If so, then on retesting, intensification of defense mechanisms such as repression and denial might occur along with the presentation of vague physical problems. INTERPERSONAL RELATIONS She has great problems with alienation in social relationships. She feels vulnerable to interpersonal hurt, lacks trust, and may never form close, satisfying interpersonal ties. She feels very insecure in relationships and may be preoccupied with guilt and self-defeating behavior. Her marital situation is likely to be unrewarding and impoverished. Married individuals with this profile typically are insecure in relationships. They lack confidence in their marriage and feel that something bad is going to happen to them. The client is likely to feel that things have gone wrong in her marriage. She is a very introverted person who has difficulty meeting and interacting with other people. She is shy and emotionally distant. She tends to be very uneasy, rigid, and overcontrolled in social situations. Her shyness is probably symptomatic of a broader pattern of social withdrawal. Personality characteristics related to social introversion tend to be stable over time. Her generally reclusive behavior, introverted lifestyle, and tendency toward interpersonal avoidance may be prominent in any future test results.
9 MMPI -2 Inpatient Mental Health Interpretive Report 1/31/14, Page 7 Karen Z. Her high score on the Marital Distress Scale suggests that her marital situation is problematic at this time. She reported a number of problems with her marriage that are possibly important to understanding her current psychological symptoms. The client's scores on the content scales suggest the following additional information concerning her interpersonal relations. Her social relationships are likely to be viewed by others as problematic. She may be visibly uneasy around others, sits alone in group situations, and dislikes engaging in group activities. DIAGNOSTIC CONSIDERATIONS Similar clients tend to have features of both an affective disorder and a thought disorder. In addition, there seems to be a long-standing pattern of maladjustment that is characteristic of people with severe personality disorders. She is likely to be diagnosed as having a Schizophrenic or Major Affective Disorder. Her scores on the content scales indicate that her acknowledged tendency toward experiencing depressed mood should be taken into consideration in any diagnostic formulation. TREATMENT CONSIDERATIONS Multiple problems and difficulties forming interpersonal relationships make patients with this profile poor candidates for relationship-based psychotherapy. Their basic lack of trust and withdrawal also make psychotherapy difficult. Some outpatients with this profile seem to benefit from minimal contact treatment, such as brief periodic visits with a directive, supportive therapist. Many need psychotropic medication to control their bizarre thinking or to elevate their mood. The client's scores on the content scales seem to indicate low potential for change. She may feel that her problems are not addressable through therapy and that she is not likely to benefit much from psychological treatment at this time. Her apparently negative treatment attitudes may need to be explored early in therapy if treatment is to be successful. In any intervention or psychological evaluation program involving occupational adjustment, her negative work attitudes could become an important problem to overcome. She has a number of attitudes and feelings that could interfere with work adjustment.

CRITICAL ITEMS The following critical items have been found to have possible significance in analyzing a client's problem situation. Although these items may serve as a source of hypotheses for further investigation, caution should be used in interpreting individual items because they may have been checked inadvertently. The percentages of endorsement for each critical item by various reference groups are presented in brackets following the listing of the item. The endorsement percentage labeled "N" is the percentage of the MMPI-2 normative sample of 1,462 women who endorsed the item in the scored direction. Endorsement percentages for the normative sample are reported for all critical items. When available, endorsement percentages for the setting are also reported. The designation "Ip1" refers to a sample of 131 female inpatients (Graham & Butcher, 1988); "Ip2" refers to a sample of 5,942 female inpatients (Pearson, 1993). Acute Anxiety State (Koss-Butcher Critical Items) Of the 17 possible items in this section, 12 were endorsed in the scored direction: 2. Item Content Omitted. (False) [N = 4; Ip1 = 30; Ip2 = 29] 3.
