Abstract :
The aim of this study was to compare Millon's psychopathology profile among Tattooed and Non-Tattooed Adults in Mahabad city. The present study was a causal-comparative and the statistical population of the study consisted of all people aged 18 to 40 Mahabad city in 2023 with Tattooed and Non-tattooed. The statistical sample of the study consisted of 200 people (100 Tattooed and 100 Non-tattooed) who were selected using the available sampling method and answered the Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory (MCMI-III). Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) and SPSS software version 23 were used to analyze the data. Data analysis showed that overall, there was a significant difference between the psychopathology scores of the two groups, and the average scores of the tattooed group were higher than those of the non-tattooed group. These significant differences were in the axis of clinical personality patterns related to schizoid disorder, antisocial personality and bullying (p<0.01), avoidance, dramatic personality, narcissistic personality and negativity (p<0.05). In the severe personality damage axis, there was a significant difference in scores related to borderline personality disorder (p<0.05). In the clinical symptom axis, significant differences were found in scores related to depression mood, alcohol consumption, substance use, post-traumatic stress disorder (p< 0.01), anxiety disorder, physicalizing, and manic (p< 0.05). Finally, the difference in scores between the two groups on the axis of severe clinical symptoms related to thinking disorder; Major depression and delusional disorder(p<0.01). According to the results, it can be said that tattoos are associated with the possibility of engaging in risky behaviors and the occurrence of a number of psychological problems and disorders, therefore, as a negative warning and forewarning, they can have a significant impact on informing those around the individual and society.
