The MMPI (Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory) includes validity scales designed to assess a person's test-taking approach and to identify potential issues with the test results. The validity score, among these scales, helps in determining whether the test taker was responding truthfully and consistently, or if there were patterns in their responses that might indicate a careless or non-genuine approach.
