Relationships among Wechsler intelligence and memory scale quotients in adult closed head injured patients.
Correlations and discrepancy scores (Full Scale IQ minus Memory Quotient) among Wechsler intelligence and memory quotients were assessed in a sample of 126 closed head injured (CHI) adults. Results indicated a slight, generalized decrease in CHI patients' mean level of performance. A significant correlation of .76 was obtained between patients' IQ and MQ scores. Discrepancy scores were relatively smaller than those found in prior research and were influenced partially by the patient's age and by time of testing postinjury. The relative magnitude of discrepancy scores found in CHI is discussed in relationship to other groups of brain-injured patients.

The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory: general guidelines to its use and interpretation in orthopedics.
The MMPI is a valuable source of additional information for the orthopedist faced with trying to manage patients who may have hysterical or hypochondriacal tendencies. The presence of elevations on scales 1 (hypochondriasis) and 3 (hysteria) markedly reduces the chances for successful therapeutic intervention, whether it be surgical or conservative. A clinical interview by a psychologist in conjunction with the MMPI has improved diagnosis and management programs for patients with low back pain.
