Million Clinical Multiaxial Inventory (MCMI)

The Million Clinical Multiaxial Inventory (MCMI) is an assessment tool used in psychology to provide information about a client's personality traits and psychopathology. This measure is short in comparison to other personality measures (195 true-false questions) and includes data on psychiatric disorders that are covered in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5). Based on the evolutionary theories of personality and psychopathology proposed by Theodore Million, the MCMI is aimed at adults (individuals over 18) and is intended to be used with clinical populations presenting with mental health difficulties. It is not to be utilized with adolescents or with general populations. Results with this assessment tool are not considered valid with subjects who are of below average intelligence or has a reading level less than 5th grade level.
