摘要: Efficacies of the three randomness validity scales for Jesness Inventory were investigated: Variable Response Inconsistency scale (J-VRIN), (VR), and Randomness (RD). Effectiveness was assessed by comparing protocols 93 male 45 female delinquents ages 14 to 18 years screened probable randomness, with a matched-pair MMPI-Adolescent 500 computer-generated all- half-random protocols. With all-random set, specificities .90 or higher, showed sensitivities as high .95 .14 protocol, set .74 .70 .07 Predictive power overall effectiveness are reported base rates .20, .10, .067, .05.
