ABSTRACT
The Restructured Form of the MMPI-2 (MMPI-2-RF; Ben-Porath & Tellegen, 2011; Tellegen & Ben-Porath, 2011) is a 338-item, self-report measure consisting of 51 new and revised Validity and Substantive scales, with the Restructured Clinical (RC) scales as its foundation. The MMPI-2-RF was developed with the support of the University of Minnesota Press, the copyright holder of the MMPI-2, following the publication of the RC scales. Each of the MMPI-2-RF items appears on the 567-item MMPI-2; thus, dual scoring is possible when the respondent was initially administered the MMPI-2 using item-conversion tables available in the MMPI-2-RF Manual for Administration, Scoring, and Interpretation (Ben-Porath & Tellegen, 2011). As of the time of this writing, the MMPI-2-RF is being offered as an alternative to, but not a replacement for, the MMPI-2; the MMPI-2 continues to be fully supported by the test publisher (Ben-Porath & Tellegen, 2011).
