"Masculinity and Femininity in the MMPI-2 and MMPI-A presents a balanced, thoughtful argument in favor of the relevance of individual differences along dimensions of masculinity-femininity in developing broader understanding of the client. Hale and Martin make a strong case for the utility of the MMPI-2 in assessing masculinity-femininity within the context of clinical assessment and provide a means of doing so that avoids past erroneous assumptions about gender and sexual identity and their relationship to masculinity-femininity." -Paul Arbisi, University of Minnesota"Masculinity and femininity are concepts that are difficult to grasp in any context, but especially on the MMPI instruments. Hale Martin and Stephen E. Finn provide clarity and relevance to an aspect of the MMPI that many have found to be confusing or clinically useless. Both scholarly and accessible, this book reviews what psychological science has to say about masculinity and femininity, and then shows how these concepts are reflected on the most widely used psychological test in the world." -Nathan Weed, Central Michigan University
