Somatization and malingering for workers' compensation applicants: a cross-cultural MMPI study.

Abstract:

:A post hoc analysis was conducted of 60 Hispanics and 60 Caucasians who had filed claims under workers' compensation. The study examined cross-cultural differences of somatization and malingering as assessed by the MMPI. Somatization was assessed by analyzing two- and three-point code types based on scales 1 (Hs), 2 (D), and 3 (Hy) of the MMPI, using the cut-off criterion of T > or = 70. Malingering was determined by analysis of the dissimulation index from the MMPI (F-K > +9). Significant differences were found for somatization; Hispanics were more likely to somatize. Minimal differences were found between Hispanic and Caucasian subjects on the malingering scale.
