Remembering and honoring Paul Meehl

The author commemorates Paul Meehl by briefly presenting some of his cardinal contributions to clinical psychology, including the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI), rational-emotive behavior therapy, and clinical versus statistical prediction. He also describes a few of his personal contacts with him. Meehl modeled a way of thinking, and thinking about thinking, that should be useful to all clinical psychologists.
