In a study of the correlations between the factors measured by MMPI and STDCR, 52 college freshmen and sophomores completed both tests. Correlations between the factors in the two tests revealed that: (a) a large number of MMPI factors seem to test traits not tested by STDCR; and (b) factors S and R of STDCR seem to measure in trait areas similar to factors D, Ma, and Si of MMPI; and factor D of STDCR overlaps to some degree with factors D and Si of MMPI.
