Popis: | The efficacy of inpatient hospitalization on emotionally impaired adolescents was investigated using present and past MMPI data. The results indicated that there is a "flattening of the profile toward normalcy" from time of admission to discharge time. Further statistical analysis revealed that of the 9 clinical MMPI scales, the "Depression" scale showed greatest change toward improvement. |
