A Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory Profile of Allergy

II. Conscious Conflict

RONALD E. SMITH Ph.D.1

1 Portland State college, Portland 1, Ore.

Responses of 76 allergic and 76 nonallergic individuals to inventory items were analyzed by the Chi-square technique. Fifty-four items were found to discriminate (p .05 or less) between experimental and control subjects. Items which discriminated between allergies and nonallergics as a whole, allergic and nonallergic females, and allergic and nonallergic males were pattern-analyzed in terms of family relations, sexual problems, social reactions, social conflicts, physiological reactions, and self reactions, and then compared with the clinical impressions of other investigators.
