Description

REPORT NUMBER: 67-18

E. K. ERIC GUNDERSON AND RANSOM J. ARTHUR
Navy Medical Neuropsychiatric Research Unit,
San Diego, California

The Cornell Medical Index (CMI) was administered to 630 Navy psychiatric
patients and 454 healthy controls. Patient and control samples were split into two groups for cross-validation purposes, and two methods, regression analysis and a new item selection technique called SEQUIN, were applied to the problem of selecting the most discriminating set of CMI items. The percentages correctly classified "sick" or "well" when results from Sample 1 were used to predict Sample 2 and vice versa were 82% and 85% by the regression method and 86% and 86% by the SEQUIN method. Seven items, perhaps representing general attributes defining mental illness in the Navy culture, contributed significantly to the predictive scales regardless of particular item selection method or sample.
