Default MMPI-2 v. MMPI-2 RF in Clinical, Forensic, & Neuropsych Assessment

I was trained on the MMPI-2, and that is what I am most comfortable with...though there has been a lot more talk about the MMPI-2 RF in the last few years. I wanted to get a better idea of how widely (or not) the MMPI-2 RF is being taught and used in general clinical practice and also in the forensic setting.

My professional interest is in regard to using the MMPI-2 RF instead of the MMPI-2 as part of a neuropsychological battery, though I am hesitant to jump right to it if it isn't well supported yet. I haven't had a chance to dig into the most recent literature (or related achived listserv discussions), so I'm hoping there are some SDN folks who have looked into this area.

For those in clinical practice....are you using the MMPI-2, MMPI-2 RF, or both?

For those still in training...are you learning the MMPI-2 RF or are they still only teaching the MMPI-2?

For those in clinical forensic practice...has the MMPI-2 RF been adopted as a viable alternative to the MMPI-2, or is there still not enough data to support it in the court room?

For those in neuropsych practice...what personality measures (if any?) do you use when personality is clinically indicated?
