Using the MMPI-2 in Differential Diagnostic of Asperger's Syndrome and Schizofrenia
Adámková, Jana ; Soukupová, Tereza (advisor) ; Goldmann, Petr (referee)
The main target of this study is to identify the scales in MMPI-2 which could help the differential diagnostic process between Asperger's syndrome and schizophrenia. Adult persons with Asperger's syndrome and adult persons with schizophrenia were examined. The study has a quantitative character, concretely data mining, which offers generating and verifying hypothesis. The results show that configuration of heights of specific scales can be crucial in distinguishing between Asperger's syndrome and schizophrenia. In the concrete we expect increase in 0Si, Sc1, Pa2 and OBS along with medial T-scores in Sc6, Pa1, Psyc and Biz in protocols of people with Asperger's syndrome. People with schizophrenia have increased T-scores in Sc6, Pa1, Psyc and Biz. KEY WORDS Asperger's syndrome Schizophrenia Differential diagnostic Adulthood MMPI-2

Profile of helping professions in MMPI-2
Berková, Klára ; Soukupová, Tereza (advisor) ; Michálková, Lucie (referee)
My bachelor thesis is devoted to Profiles of Care Occupations in MMPI- 2. The thesis is devided into 2 parts -a theoretical and an empirical. The theoretical part explains the expressions such as "personality", "caring", "prosocial behaviour", "care occupations" and "volunteerism". I describe the personality of a care occupation mainly from the point of view of individual personal characteristics. The explanation of the characteristics is based on the researched facts. I operate with a questionnaire Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory 2 in the empirical part of thesis, I decided to include an introduction of this psychodiagnostical procedure and I focuse it on diagnosing those personal characteristics that are connected to care occupation personality. Empirical part of thesis is devoted to a research based on following questions: 1) Do psychologists, the representatives of care occupations, show this characteristics in a questionnaire MMPI-2 that are commonly connected to care occupations in general? 2) Do the psychologists differ from volunteers in their scores in MMPI-2 (in terms of comparing profiles of personal characteristics of those 2 named groups)? 5

Validity of drawing as a projective test
Matoušková, Tereza ; Klusák, Miroslav (advisor) ; Křížová, Ivana (referee)
Validity of drawing as a projective test The subject of this work is to investigate the relationship between a projective method, I specifically chose the Tree Test, and the Personality Questionnaire MMPI-2. The research question is as follows: What is the correlation between the clinical scales of the Personality Questionnaire MMPI-2 and the projective Tree Drawing Test? Both tests were assigned to adolescents from children's homes. I found statistically significant correlations in paranoia, hypochondria, hysteria and psychasthenia among men, I also looked for matches between individual clinical scales and the Tree Drawing in individual case reports. Unlike the research I present in my work, I have found areas where the projective Tree Drawing Test could correspond to personality characteristics as approached by the Personality Questionnaire MMPI-2.
