Although there has been agreement that brain injury often alters emotional functioning, there has been little agreement regarding the effects of lateralized brain injury on emotional status. The current study examined a fairly large sample of lateralized brain injured patients (N = 186) and compared scores on an objective self-report measure of personality or emotional status (MMPI). Results are consistent with prior studies by Reitan and others in that there were no significant differences between lateralized groups. Both groups showed moderate elevations (T scores in the low 60s) on scales 1, 2, 3, and 8. This was interpreted as reflecting somatic concern, mild-moderate depression, and interpersonal difficulties.
