Revised Personnel System

Two report options are available for the Minnesota Reports: Revised Personnel System, 3rd Edition. The Interpretive Report includes a narrative interpretive section along with the client's MMPI-2 scores and profiles. The Adjustment Rating Report provides a classification of the applicant on several personality dimensions but no narrative report is provided.
Both reports are available for purchase through our distributor, Pearson Assessments.
