Nordin, H., Eisemann, M.&Richter, J. (2005). MMPI-2 subgroups in a sample of chronic pain patients.Scandinavian Journal of Psychology,46, 209 –216.MMPI-2 scores of 307 female and 161 male chronic pain patients were analyzed by gender using a multivariate clustering method. Two subgroups were found for both sexes replicating previous results. The major subgroup corresponded to the classical“Conversion V” and the minor corresponded to the“Generally elevated” profile. The results also indicated a satisfactory internal consistency and a high discriminant validity of the Swedish version of the MMPI-2. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
