  a. contemporary norms
  b. computer scoring
  c. incorporation of items scored on scales rather than just true-false items
  d. nearly complete re-scaling

Question 2

Why did the MMPI-2 number the clinical scales rather than retain the scale names that specified clinical conditions such as paranoia and depression?

  b. Elevations on a particular scale do not necessarily mean the individual has a particular diagnosis.
