title: The relationship between various dietary factors and MMPI subscales: implications for clinical practice.
abstract: Examined specific relationships, as they occur in nature, between particular dietary variables or groups of variables and specific MMPI subscales. Detailed nutritional and demographic information and MMPI profiles were obtained from 20 adult psychiatric inpatients, 10 adult psychiatric outpatients, and 20 adult normals. A linear multiple regression analysis revealed strong relationships between a number of dietary variables and MMPI subscales. Implications for future research and clinical practice were discussed.
