Abstract
"The primary question to be answered by the results of this experimental treatment is whether, after a quarter of study of the MMPI, the items designated as subtle maintain their subtlety." It is demonstrated that those items designated as subtle not only behave in a discriminably different fashion on the occasion of their initial presentation, but that this difference is manifested after the students are given additional instruction, virtually one full quarter, which consisted of lectures on the structure of the MMPI.
