Abstract

In this study, we examined the comparability of the Ego Strength (Es), Anxiety (A), and Repression (R) scales, and Welsh's (1965) classification of scores on theA and R scales into nine categories, on the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) and MMPI-2. Undergraduate students (65 women, 65 men) completed the MMPI and MMPI-2, in counterbalanced order, 1 week apart. There was high agreement between the MMPI and MMPI-2 for the A scale, moderately high agreement for the Es scale, and a moderate level of agreement for the R scale, but little consistency in Welsh's categorization of A and R scores.
