RESEARCH EXPERIENCE
02/01/04- 05/31/04
Research Assistant
La Mirada, CA
Faculty: David Cimbora, Ph.D.
My research experience was as a research assistant for Dr. David Cimbora at Rosemead School of Psychology researching
psychopathy within a religious undergraduate population. It entailed interviewing various participants through the use of
the Hare Psychopathy Checklist: Screening Version. The focus was on the lack of psychopathy within this population and
the influence of guilt and shame on the participants. The process included videotaping an interview with patients for one
hour and a half. Also, I was required to interview a collateral individual in their families. Once the interviews were
completed I worked with another assistant in transcribing the interviews in order for them to be scored with the
psychopathy checklist. The scores would then be compared with the scores of the other assistants to evaluate rater
reliability. I had about 15 participants to interview and about an equal number of women and men. Conducting the
interview did bring about the lack of empathy, the tendency toward narcissism by some of the participants, and their
unwillingness to accept responsibility. However, it did not provide the avenues in how to increase their level of empathy
(an issue to further explore in future research).

FIFTY HISTORICAL HIGHLIGHTS
IN
CROSS-CULTURAL MMPI/MMPI-2/MMPI-A1
ASSESSMENT
August, 2011
James N. Butcher
Professor Emeritus
University of Minnesota
The first journal publication on the Multiphasic Schedule (Hathaway and McKinley,
1940) established the empirical scale development approach in constructing personality scales
and began a program of research that evolved for more than 70 years and spanned many
languages and countries. (For a discussion of the MMPI’s role in contemporary assessment
psychology see: Butcher, 2010). The following highlights describe special contributions that
were made to adapt the instrument to international populations or cultural use. Major research
studies are highlighted and their findings/implications noted here. A number of widely
influential test translations are cited. In a number of places, the contributions of several MMPI
developers over time are cited to show the sequence of relevant events and the continuity of
development. It is not possible to cite all of the existing translations, however, some references
are provided at the end of this document to give further information about additional sources.
1948
Shortly after the end of the Second World War mental health professionals began
to translate the MMPI items and use the test for assessments in other countries.
One of the first translations of the test was conducted by Reda who translated the
MMPI into Italian and initiated a number of research projects to assess the
generalizability of the test in Italy. (For a historical perspective and research on
the MMPI and MMPI-2 in Italy see Butcher 2011).
1951
The Cuban Spanish language translation of the MMPI was undertaken by
Idelfonso Bernal del Riesgo from Cuba in collaboration with Starke Hathaway.
1 Citation: Butcher, J. N. (2011). Fifty Historical highlights in cross-‐cultural MMPI/MMPI-‐2/MMPI-‐A assessment. Retrieved from http://www.umn.edu/mmpi 1 The inventory was released for use in 1951 (see Quevado & Butcher, 2005 for a
discussion of the development of the MMPI in Cuba).
1956
Important factors in test translation were established in Sundberg’s development
of the German translation of the MMPI.
1956
Gunvor Rand translated the MMPI into Norwegian and Anne von der Lippe
revised this translation in 1976. This translation came to be widely used in
Norway until it was replaced by the MMPI-2 translation. In 1993, Havik and his
colleagues conducted extensive research on the MMPI-2 in Norway. He
translated and adapted the MMPI-2 for use with Norwegian clients. (see
discussion by Ellertsen, Havik & Skavhellen, 1996).
1957
Nencini & Banissoni published the official version of the translated MMPI along
with norms for use of the test in Italy,
1959
One of the earliest translations of the MMPI in Asia was conducted by Abe in
Japan. His early research on the MMPI prompted great interest in personality
assessment and objective interpretation methods in Japan.
1959
The French translation of the MMPI was initiated in 1959 by Pichot, Gorceix and
Perse (1960) and the manual was published in 1966 by Perse.
1961
Rosen and Rizzo conducted a study providing norms for the standardization of the
MMPI in Italy. Their research and case example provided great impetus for
research and clinical application of the MMPI in Italy, one of the most active
countries for international MMPI use (see discussion by Butcher, 2011).
1963
Chung, Lee and Chin translated and developed the original version of the MMPI
for use in Korea and published a manual detailing its use.
1968
Raphael Nunez developed the Mexican translation of the MMPI using a Puerto
Rican translation of items that was adapted for the Mexican population. The
booklet for the test was published in 1988 and the US norms for the original
MMPI was the basis for interpretation. This version of the test was widely used in
Mexico and other Latin American countries until the publication of the Mexican
version of the MMPI-2 in 1996 (for a discussion of the Mexican MMPI see
Nunez, 1979). The Mexican form of the MMPI-2 developed by Lucio and ReyesLagunes (1996) has come to be widely used in Mexico and other Latin American
countries.
1970
First International Symposium on Recent Developments in the MMPI (Mexico)
highlighting international use of the MMPI. This meeting (developed by J.
Butcher, Rafael Nunez and Miren Garcia Barcena) brought together MMPI
researchers from many countries and promoted extensive international research
collaboration.
2 1970
Savasir and Turgay developed a translation of the MMPI into Turkish. This
translation was revised by Savasir and Erol in 1978. The MMPI was widely used
in Turkey for clinical and personalty assessment until it was revised in 1996 after
the MMPI-2 was published (Savasir & Chulha, 1996).
1972
Pancheri and Morgana developed a computer-based MMPI interpretation system
for the Italian version of the MMPI. This approach to test interpretation came to
be widely accepted in Italy.
1972
Gottesman & Shields’ MMPI study on the genetics of schizophrenia and
personality in England contributed to the establishment of the MMPI in
personality research.
1974
Raya Gur, in collaboration with J. N. Butcher, translated and conducted validation
research on the MMPI in Israel (see Butcher & Gur, 1974). Almagor and Nevo
(1996) developed and normed the Hebrew version of the MMPI-2 for use in
Israel.
1974
The first translation of the MMPI in Persian for use in Iran was completed by
Okhovat (1974). The MMPI was widely used for a number of applications. After
the redevelopment of the MMPI in the 1980’s and publication of MMPI-2,
Nezami and Zamani (1996) translated and developed the MMPI-2 for Iran.
1976
Although during the late 1960s several MMPI scales were translated into Urdu at
the Government College in Lahore, Pakistan for Master’s theses, the complete
translation of the test was accomplished by Laeeq Mirza (see discussion by Mirza
in Butcher & Pancheri, 1976). Mirza provided an excellent discussion of the
translation process undertaken to provide an equivalent test translation.
1976
Butcher and Pancheri conducted a multinational study of the use of the MMPI in
clinical assessment and developed a rigorous methodology for developing and
evaluating MMPI translations (Butcher & Pancheri, 1976).
1976
An abbreviated (377 item) form of the MMPI was published in the former Soviet
Union by Berezin, Miroshnikov, and Rozhanets. This test was used for both
clinical assessment and personnel screening such as cosmonaut selection.
1977
The MMPI was used at the University of Athens in Greece (see Kokkevi,
Typaldou, et al. 1981) for clinical assessment. A different Greek translation was
also used in Thessaloniki, Greece (see Manos and Butcher, 1982). These
translations were both widely used in clinical and personnel screening programs
until the MMPI was revised in 1989. A revised version of the Greek translation
was conducted by Kokkevi and colleagues after MMPI-2 was published (see
Kokkevi, 1996).
3 1978
Rissetti and colleagues translated and adapted the MMPI for Chile. These
investigators conducted substantial normative data and validation research on the
instrument over several years (see also Rissetti, et al. 1985; Rissetti et al. 1996).
1979
A conference was held in Japan in 1979 to explore the MMPI research
developments and to develop a consolidated version of the MMPI in Japan (the 6th
International Conference in personality assessment, organized by H. Hama and J.
Butcher and sponsored by Doshisha University). There were 15 existing
translations of varying quality in use at the time. Lee Anna Clark served as
coordinator and developer of the consolidated version of the Japanese MMPI
(Clark, 1979).
1979
Nicolas Seisdedos developed a translation and norms for the MMPI in Spain that
were revised in 1986 (see Seisdedos & Roig, 1986).
1979
La Or Pongpanich (with the assistance of J. Butcher) translated and developed the
MMPI for use in Thailand. This translation has been widely used for assessing
both patients and military personnel. The Thai MMPI was updated and replaced
by Pongpanich after the MMPI-2 was published (see Pongpanich, 1996).
1979
Cheung developed a Chinese translation of the MMPI for Hong Kong and
conducted research on validation of the test in Hong Kong (see also Cheung,
1985). In 1985, Song Wei Zhen and Fanny Cheung published the initial Chinese
norms for Mainland China following the administration of the Chinese MMPI to a
sample of normal Chinese subjects.
1985
Boey conducted a study comparing English speaking versus Chinese speaking
people from Singapore. The two versions of the MMPI were found to be
comparable in assessment of personality characteristics.
1991
Cheung and colleagues conducted an empirical study indicating the need for
developing a specific Infrequency (F) scale for Chinese clients based upon the
differences in item endorsements of Chinese and US normals.
1992
Strassberg, Tilley, Bristone and Oei conducted a cross-cultural evaluation of the
MMPI-2 in assessing chronic pain in Australia and the US. They found that the
performance of chronic pain patients in Australia on Hs, Hy and D scales
corresponded closely to findings in the United States. The behavioral correlates
for scores on these scales matched those found in the US.
1993
The Flemish/Dutch version of the MMPI-2 was published by Pen Test Publisher
(see Derksen, De Mey, Sloore, and Hellenbosch). This instrument has come to be
one of the most widely used tests in Holland and Belgium. (for further discussion
see Sloore, Derksen, de Mey, and Hellenbosch, 1996).
4 1994
Deinard and colleagues developed a Hmong translation of the MMPI-2 as a
means of assessing refugees in need of mental health services (Deinard et al.
1994,1998). In addition to the booklet version of the test, a tape-recorded Hmong
version was also developed because the Hmong language is largely a spoken
language (Deinard et al. 1996).
1996
Avila-Espada. & Jimenez-Gomez developed the MMPI-2 in Spain (Castilian
version) by translating the new items that were added to MMPI and collected new
norms for the test in Spain.
1996
After the MMPI was revised in 1989 researchers in France participated in
redevelopment of the test. Gillet, Simon, and colleagues (1996) translated and
normed the French language MMPI-2 and conducted research on its equivalence.
1996
Kyunghee Han translated the MMPI-2 items into Korean and developed
normative samples for the standardization of the Korean version of the MMPI-2
1996
Koscheyev and Leon collaborated on an extensive project to translate the MMPI2 into Russian. This version of the MMPI-2 has been widely used in both clinical
and personnel contexts.
1996
Shiota, Krauss and Clark adapted and developed the Japanese version of the
MMPI-2.
1996
Pancheri, Sirigatti and Biondi translated and normed the MMPI-2 in Italy. These
investigators developed national norms and also conducted research on the
MMPI-2 with psychiatric patients.
1996
Abdalla Soliman, an Egyptian psychologist who was originally trained at
Minnesota, translated and adapted the MMPI-2 into Arabic. This translation has
also been used in other Arabic speaking countries such as Iraq, Kuwait and Syria.
1996
Tran developed the Vietnamese translation of the MMPI-2.
1998
Shores & Carstairs studied the accuracy of MMPI-2 assessment in an
international context. They found that computer-based assessment of clients
using the MMPI-2 validity measures was highly accurate in classification in
Australia.
1999
Hayama, Oguchi and Shinkai published a cross-validation study of the MMPI-2 in
assessing chronic schizophrenics in Japan. Patients with schizophrenic disorders
in Japan appeared to be highly similar to schizophrenic patients in the United
States in terms of scale elevations and code type configurations.
2000
Sirigatti and Giannini provided a cross validation of MMPI-2 indices of faking
good. The S scale was found to operate in a highly similar manner in detecting
superlative self presentation in Italy as in the United States.
5 2000
Scott & Pampa conducted a cross-cultural study of the MMPI-2. MMPI-2
Hispanic Version was administered under standardized conditions to participants
with a wide range of age, educational, occupational, and socioeconomic levels.
The Peruvian sample was compared with the MMPI-2 normative sample. There
was a high degree of similarity across most basic and supplementary scales.
2000
Miach and colleagues conducted an evaluation of MMPI-2-based personality
factors associated with gender dysphoria disorder in Australia.
2000
Vendrig, in the Netherlands, provided a valuable model for using the MMPI-2 in
assessing chronic pain particularly through examining the existence of
psychological problems that are comorbid with the chronic pain. Such problems
may then merit clinical attention in their own right. Chronic pain treatments are
brief and of a fixed length. It is very important that patients benefit to some extent
from treatment as failed treatment experiences can lead to further demoralization.
For this reason, the clinician should be aware of any comorbid psychopathology
prior to the initiation of treatment. When a severely depressed patient is, for
example, given antidepressant medication in the preprogram stage, the
accessibility of the patient may change and thereby the chances of successful
treatment enhanced. The MMPI-2 may be extremely useful for this purpose as
other measures of pain-related psychological functioning lack the framework for
assessment of general psychopathology/personality. Vendrig’s model also
includes the application of the MMPI-2 to reassess patients as treatment proceeds.
2003
Dong and Church conducted a cross-cultural equivalence and validation study of
the Vietnamese translation of the MMPI–2. They examined a sample of 1stgeneration Vietnamese refugees in the United States. Respondents completed the
Vietnamese MMPI–2, the Harvard Trauma Questionnaire, a measure of
acculturation, and a demographic questionnaire. An inspection of MMPI–2 mean
profiles and items showing extreme endorsement rates suggested that certain
symptom tendencies and cultural values may be reflected in responses to some
MMPI–2 items. Older age, lower acculturation, greater experienced
premigration–postmigration traumas, and military veteran status were all
associated with elevated MMPI–2 profiles, suggesting that the MMPI–2 functions
in a reasonably equivalent and valid way in this population.
2003
Blajer and colleagues compared the validity and clinical scale scores of a sample
of Romanian police applicants to those of male policemen from the United
States. Statistical and clinical differences were found for some measures although
the Romanian applicants were free of pathology. Romanian police applicants
showed some personality differences such as being more introverted than
American officers. These results are discussed in terms of differences in age and
experience between Romanian and American policemen, differences between
Romanian and American police forces and their roles, and differences between
Romanian and American society and culture.
6 2003
Cheung, Zhang and Song conducted an extensive normative study on the Chinese
MMPI-2 and published the Manual of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality
Inventory-2 (MMPI-2) (Chinese ed.).
2007
Butcher, Cabiya, Lucio and Garrido provided an integrated psychological
assessment strategy for Hispanic clients including the use of the test with Spanish
language clients in other countries.
2007
In a cross-cultural validity study, Woo and Oei evaluated personality similarity
and differences among patients from the countries of Singapore and Australia.
Participants were recruited from psychiatric outpatient clinics from Singapore and
Australia. The overall findings indicate that MMPI-2 profile comparisons are
comparable between Australian and Singaporean subjects, with considerably
more similarities than differences. However, there are significant differences on
specific MMPI-2 subscales including the L, Hypochondriasis, Addiction Potential
Scale, Overcontrolled Hostility, Fears, Health Concerns and Negative Treatment
Indicators. It is suggested that the differences could reflect cultural and ethnic
distinctions specific to each country, whereas the commonalities between the two
nations indicate comparable overall profiles.
2009
Zapata and colleagues provided further evidence in the appropriateness of
assessing Spanish language clients using the MMPI-2. The MMPI-2 symptom
scores for Spanish speaking employees are generally similar to the scores for
Anglo employees and do not require adjustments in interpretive strategies.
