7. The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory is an example of a(n)_____ personality test.Ans: objective8. What historical event elevated psychotherapy to become one of the most common activities of clinicalpsychologists?Ans: World War IIEssay Questions1. Briefly explain how the size and scope of the DSM has changed since its original edition.Ans: It hasgenerallyexpanded in size and scope with every new edition. The largest increase took place fromDSM-II to DSM-III.*2. Compare and contrast the proposed disorderattenuated psychosis syndromewith the official disorderschizophrenia.Ans:In attenuated psychosis syndrome,the person experiences mild or brief delusions, hallucinations, or otherpsychotic phenomena. These are the same kinds of symptoms experienced by people with schizophrenia, but inattenuated psychosis syndrome, the symptoms would be more fleeting, less intense, and the person’s perceptionof reality would remain largely intact.3. Briefly explain the fundamental differences between projective personality tests (e.g, Rorschach, TAT) andobjective personality tests (e.g., MMPI, MMPI-2, NEO-PI-R).Ans: Projective tests involve presenting the client with ambiguous stimuli. They assume that the way anindividual perceives and makes sense of the blots corresponds to the way they perceive and make sense of theworld around them. Objective tests are typically pencil-and-paper self-report instruments with more restrictedranges of responding (e.g., multiple choice or true-false rather than free response). Objective tests havegenerally had less questionable reliability and validity than projective tests.4. Briefly summarize three of the ways in which war has influenced the history of clinical psychology.Ans:Army Alpha and Beta intelligence tests during World War I, used to measure the intelligence of recruitsand soldiers, were precursors to today's intelligence tests. Wechsler's clinical experiences during World War Iaided his creation of the Wechsler-Bellevue. Following World War II, veterans returned with "shell shock," andother psychological symptoms; the U.S. government provided significant funding to train additional clinicalpsychologists to treat these veterans. The Nazi presence in Europe during the 1930s forced many influentialfigures in clinical psychology (e.g., Sigmund Freud) to feel to the United States. Clinical psychologists play acritical role in treating veterans from recent military conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan; the VA is one of thecountry's largest providers of mental health services.
