MM, TMI. Few can follow the technical details you posted. It tends to scare people. It helps to keep it elementary.

Regarding depression. The MMPI-II can tend to indicate depression but when analyzed further with the Cripe Neurological Symptoms inventory, tbi issues can be discerned. Google 'Use of the MMPI with mild closed head injury' and/or Lloyd L Cripe and you will find some info. I do not have the subscriptions to access the article. I have the book that it is published in.

My first NPA report said my dysfunctional memory and other issues were due to depression even though my depression scales from the MMPI showed no depression. The NeuroPsych even said he was defying the multitude of test results to say my cause was depression and that I must have faked so well that I beat the validity tests in the NPA. But, that is unique to me. Others should not try to project my results into their situation.
