Question

Camille suffers from severe depression and may have a psychological disorder. Which personality assessment is best suited to help make that determination?

Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI-2)
Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)
Big Five test
Rorschach test

Answer 1

Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Unlike all of the other tests, the MMPI-2 is the only one on the list used by professionals to assess mental disorders. It assesses personality traits and psychopathological traits. The MBTI and the Big Five tests only asses personality traits, and do not consider pathological behaviors. And finally, Rorscharch test is a projective test that's supposed to allow trained specialists to assess subconscious impulses, however this test is also not sufficient to provide a reliable diagnosis.

Answer 2

The personality assessment that is best suited to help determine whether Camille has a psychological disorder is The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI-2) because this psychological test examines personality traits and psychopathology of adults who are suspected of having mental health issues, mainly with the purpose to help create a diagnosis or to help develop treatment plans.

The other options are incorrect because they are more centered on identifying and examining personality traits, individual perceptions, and emotional functioning, and not in assessing mental disorders.
