Frequency of MMPI two-point codes in a large alcoholic sample.

The MMPI two-point codes of 1,009 male Caucasian inpatient alcoholics were examined. Although the mean profile was 4-2, analysis of individual profiles revealed that 79% of the profiles were classified differently from the mean profile. These findings indicate that alcoholics are a heterogeneous group with respect to the MMPI. Some of the most frequently occurring codetypes seem to be associated with widely different behavioral descriptions, which leads to the inference that alcoholics are heterogeneous with respect to personality characteristics as well.
