An introductory pair of chapters precedes a group of 4 chapters on "Disorders of Mental Health and Deviant Behavior" (essentially adjustmental). Under "Neurological and Mental Disorders and Diseases" the author considers the convulsive disorders, cerebral palsy, the brain injured, and "mental disorders and diseases."

Under "Physical Disorders and Defects," the speech-handicapped, the orthopedically crippled, lowered vitality, and other miscellaneous physical conditions are dealt with. A 3-chapter section on "Sociological and Community Responsibility" completes the text. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved) (Source: create)

The coded MMPI profiles of 1078 prisoners were sorted into IQ classification groups in accordance with their scores on the Revised Beta Examination. 6 of the diagnostic scales shifted significantly in code rank with increase in IQ. The profiles of the 2 most intelligent groups were indicative of behavioral characteristics associated with the character disorders; whereas the profiles of the average and below average IQ groups were found to be dominated by configurations usually associated with indices of neuroticism and anxiety. The probability of receiving benefit from psychotherapy appeared greater among the lower IQ groups due to the dominance in their group profiles of those scales that have been found more susceptible to change as a result of therapy. Intellectually superior persons tend toward greater degrees of feminine interest. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
