The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory
(“MMPI”) is a test that determines where a person falls
on scales measuring traits such as depression, paranoia
and mania. On June 14, 2005, the U.S. Court of Appeals
for the Seventh Circuit held that the MMPI is a medical
examination and that its use by an employer in making
personnel decisions violated the Americans with
Disabilities Act. Karraker et al. v. Rent-A-Center et al.,
