http://truthsilo.com/stds/Dalton-Appendices.htm MMPI-2 Books http://www.lunaticrant.com/mmpi/ "The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) was developed in the late 1930's by psychologist Starke R. Hathaway and psychiatrist J.C. McKinley at the University of Minnesota. Today, it is one of the most researched psychological tests in existence. The MMPI is not a perfect test, but it remains a valuable tool in the diagnosis and treatment of mental illness. It is also often used in legal cases, including criminal defense and custody disputes. The test has also been used as screening instrument for certain professions, especially high risk jobs.
Lying or attempting to trick the MMPI-2 is extremely hard to do which is why it is used so extensively by employers. The easiest solution is, if you are not doing so well on a certain score section within the test results, is to change your skills and abilities in that category. Changing who you are, at the core of your Sub Conscious mind, becomes reflected in your attitudes and beliefs that are picked up on the MMPI.
The bottom line is you need to change who you are. While some people might adopt the attitude ‘I am not changing who I am', the majority of people who either want to or are successful accept that creating new skills and abilities is just part of your personal and business growth. A personality trait is seen as just another skill, just as you may need to learn some accounting skills, sometimes you may need to learn how to control anger or move from a negative to a positive outlook of the things that happen in your life. Personalities are dynamic and can change in time in response to the environment.”
