Abstract

The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory, Second Edition (MMPI-2) has been widely used in the evaluation of people suffering with chronic pain. Several Clinical Scales have demonstrated modest utility in predicting pain treatment outcomes. Nevertheless, MMPI-2 Clinical Scales have been criticized for their lack of discriminant validity due to overlapping constructs and shared scale variance. The Restructured Clinical (RC) Scales were developed to address this psychometric limitation. However, their utility vis-à-vis enhanced prediction of pain treatment outcomes has not been determined.
