Millon® Adolescent Clinical Inventory (MACI®)

The Millon Adolescent Clinical Inventory (MACI) was specifically created to address the unique concerns, pressures and situations facing teens. This assessment helps assess personality patterns as well as self-reported concerns and clinical symptoms. To assistin formulating a more precise treatment plan, the Grossman Facet Scales identify personality processes (e.g., self-image, mood, temperament) that underlie overall scale elevations on the Personality Pattern scales. Each personality scale has three facet scales, for which results are presented in the electronic reports.

Using an age-appropriate format, the MACI helps measure a number of factors closely associated with adolescents, including Sexual Discomfort, Substance Abuse Proneness, Suicidal Tendency and Eating Dysfunctions.

The MACI test contains 27 scales in three clinically relevant categories along with modifying indices that help identify test-taking attitudes, as well as confused or random responding.

• 12 Personality Patterns Scales

• 8 Expressed Concerns Scales

• 7 Clinical Syndromes Scales

• 3 Modifying Indices

• 1 Validity Scale

• 36 Grossman Personality Facet Scales

AREAS OF APPLICATION

• Measure progress before, during and after treatment

REPORT OPTIONS

The MACI has the following two software reports available:

• Profile Report: provides base rate scores for all 27 scales and three modifying indices in an easy-to-read graph. This convenient report can help to quickly identify clients who may require more intensive evaluation.

• Interpretive Report:provides an in-depth analysis that brings critical concerns to light andincludes treatment strategies, specifically developed to address teen-related issues.
