The present study investigated relationships between the MMPI and multiple validational referents within an experimental-laboratory situation, where Ss underwent provocative interpersonal stress. / The subject sample comprised an N of 176 black and white, male, prison inmates, ages 18 to 26 years. Subjects with valid MMPI profiles were counterbalanced in assignment to black and white experimenters. The data were collected during a larger research project in 1970-1974. / Experimental procedures resulted in a 3 x 2 factoral design across three classes of dependent variables. Thus, the results were analyzed for MMPI high, medium and low categories, on each standard clinical scale for each of 26 dependent variables. These included reports of subjective feelings, social behaviors and autonomic responses. / Findings were nonsignificant and discussed in light of homogeneity and chance factors as being salient features. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 44-11, Section: B, page: 3538. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--The Florida State University, 1983.
