Abstract
Among the findings in a study of various tests with 34 male and 20 female blind subjects, it was found that the MMPI may be used with the blind without modification. There is no need for separate blind norm tables. With the Sargent Insight Test, however, the norms proposed by Sargent differ enough to suggest that these norms should be applied with caution to blind subjects. The Emotional Factors Inventory results and the scores on the MMPI suggest that "the blind are not paranoid or depressed as a group; a finding at variance with previous assumptions." On the MMPI three peaks occurred in the blind subjects in the K, Mf, and Ma. This was true of both sexes and suggests further exploration.
