Question

Which of the following tests was developed by Hathaway and McKinley?

• A. MMPI
• B. TAT
• C. RT
• D. None of these

Hint:

Think “H& M $\rightarrow$ MMPI.”

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Identify the developers. Starke R. Hathaway and J. C. McKinley created the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI).
Step 2: Note the test’s character. MMPI is an empirically keyed, objective inventory with {validity scales} (e.g., L, F, K) and {clinical scales} (e.g., Depression, Hysteria, Schizophrenia) used for assessment and diagnosis.
Step 3: Eliminate distractors. TAT is by Murray & Morgan; “RT” (reaction time) is not a personality inventory.
Step 4: Conclude. \[ \boxed{\text{MMPI (Option A).}} \]
