On the MMpi what does a code 48 mean?

On the MMPI (Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory), a code 48 typically indicates a profile with high scores on scales related to paranoia and social introversion. This combination suggests that the individual may experience feelings of alienation, suspicion, and interpersonal difficulties. Such patterns can be indicative of underlying psychological distress or personality concerns. However, it's essential to interpret MMPI results within the context of a comprehensive psychological assessment.
