Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of the current project are is examine the incremental predictive utility of the MMPI-2-RF-EX validity scales in detecting simulated underreporting of suicide risk on the MMPI-2-RF-EX and other self-report measures of suicide risk in 150 military Veterans experiencing past-month death or suicidal ideation.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Standard MMPI

Participants will be instructed to complete the MMPI-2-RF-EX and other measures under standard conditions (e.g., to not simulate underreporting of suicide risk).

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory -2- Restructured Form - Experimental

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

The MMPI-2-RF-EX is a broadband, self-report measure of personality and psychopathology was developed for research purposes in order to develop the MMPI-3 (Ben-Porath \& Tellegen, 2020), which is comprised of a subset of MMPI-2-RF-EX items.

Simulation MMPI

Participants will be instructed to conceal current suicide risk when completing the MMPI-2-RF-EX and other measures.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory -2- Restructured Form - Experimental

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

The MMPI-2-RF-EX is a broadband, self-report measure of personality and psychopathology was developed for research purposes in order to develop the MMPI-3 (Ben-Porath \& Tellegen, 2020), which is comprised of a subset of MMPI-2-RF-EX items.
