David M. Corey, PhD, is a practicing psychologist in Portland, Oregon, with more than 40 years of experience conducting suitability and fitness evaluations for police and other public safety positions. He is coauthor of the MMPI-3 Public Safety Candidate Interpretive Reports, as well as other peer-reviewed books, chapters, and journal articles on assessing public safety personnel.   Yossef S. Ben-Porath, PhD, is professor emeritus of psychological sciences at Kent State University and a board-certified clinical psychologist. He has been involved extensively in MMPI research for more than 38 years, codeveloping the MMPI-3 and coauthoring many test manuals, books, book chapters, and articles on the MMPI instruments.

"David M. Corey and Yossef S. Ben-Porath’s volume lives up to its promise of being a practical guide. The book provides a comprehensive discussion of the various upgrades embodied in the MMPI-3. The model the authors propose for integrating the MMPI-3 as part of a multimodal assessment of suitability or fitness-for-duty for public safety applicants and incumbents is applicable to using any standardized test for these purposes. The chapters on case studies are a bonus. Corey and Ben-Porath include thought-provoking hypothetical cases of real issues and conundrums that psychologists and psychiatrists commonly encounter when conducting these evaluations. This volume has become an indispensable reference on my bookshelf." -Mark Zelig, PhD, ABPP   "Assessing Police and Other Public Safety Personnel With the MMPI-3 is a clearly written and well-organized work that explains the usefulness of the MMPI-3 Public Safety Candidate Interpretive Reports (PSCIRs) as well as how to use the MMPI-3 effectively in fitness-for-duty evaluations. The book addresses relevant state and federal laws, regulations, and mandates for evaluations; ethical and testing standards; and pertinent guidelines for public safety evaluations. Key points include discussions of threats to validity, static vs. dynamic risk markers, and understanding VA compensation ratings. Clarifying the evaluator’s role in determining suitability through the integration of multiple data sources is well done. Case examples showcase this point throughout, describing how to apply the data in reports. ‘Risk mitigation does not equal risk elimination,’ is the mantra here, one useful for both the evaluator as well as the hiring authority being served." -Jocelyn E.
