Mild elevations on Scale 6 suggest that the person is emotional, soft-hearted, and experiences interpersonal sensitivity. As the elevation increases, a person's suspicion and sensitivity be come progressively more extreme and consistent with psychotic processes. He or she may have delusions, ideas of self-reference, a grandiose self- concept, and disordered thought processes. In contrast, low-scoring persons are seen as being quite balanced. However, there are some differences between the descriptions given for low-scoring males as opposed to low-scoring females. Low-scoring ma les are described as cheerful, decisive, self-centered, lacking in a strong sense of conscience, and having a narrow range of interests. Females are somewhat differently described as mature and reasonable. Persons scoring extremely low might actually be paranoid but are attempting to hide their paranoid processes. Thus, they would actually have characteristics quite similar to high-scoring persons.
