MCMI-III profiles and personal variables of 178 convicted offenders from four offender groups were analyzed. The archival data was collected from a Midwestern county court services department in which all criminal offenders were tested between 1997 and 2002. The participants were divided into four offender groups: child molesters (n = 66), exhibitionists (n = 36), non-sexually violent (n = 40), or non-sexually non-violent offenders (n = 36). The purpose of this study was to utilize the MCMI-III to replicate earlier MCMI-I research examining personality styles of sex offender types. The MCMI-III was used to address the issue if personality variables can distinguish sex offender types from non-sexual offenders. A discriminant function analysis was used to examine MCMI-III scales as variables that differentiated between offender groups. Results indicated that sex offenders were statistically distinguished from non-sexual offenders in terms of a response pattern: Sex offenders more than non-sexual offenders were overwhelmingly likely to engage in a "fake good" profile that emphasized the positive attributes. However, no significant differences emerged between child molesters and exhibitionists. Knowledge of prior criminal and sexual activity as well as prior history of physical abuse were found to be important demographic and personal variables that further discriminated sex offenders from non-sexual offenders.
