Validity of a computerized on-line MMPI interpretive system.

Three independent, experienced clinicians trained at the University of Minnesota were asked to rate the quality and accuracy of codetype interpretations and associated rules used in the Psych Systems' automated MMPI program. Results showed that this system is rated highly by clinicians. The authors discuss how this approach can be used in validating other automated test interpretation systems and suggest that feedback by expert judges can be used to improve such systems.
