  1. The Rorschach Test Ink Blot Test MAKE-UP EDITION

  2. *Swiss psychologist Hermann Rorschach *Born 1884 Zurich -- Father painter *Influenced by: Ambiguous designs *Practice in Switzerland and Russia *Married <Olga> Russian physician *Experimented with inkblots in 1911

  3. *Created the Rorschach inkblot test in 1921. *300 mental patients & 100 control subjects * Psychodiagnostik’ *Variations Alfred Binet *Improvements made later after his death ’22

  4. Method: Tester and subject typically sit next to each other at a table Tester slightly behind the subject Five inkblots are black ink Two are black & red ink Three are multicolored, on a white background

  5. Test subject has sees and responds to all of the inkblots (free association phase) Tester then presents them again one at a time in a set sequence for the subject to study: Subject is asked to note where s/he sees what s/he originally saw and what makes it look like that (inquiry phase) Subject usually asked to hold cards & may rotate them.

  6. Whether the cards are rotated, & other related factors such as whether permission to rotate them is asked, may expose personality traits and normally contributes to the assessment. As the subject is examining the inkblots, the psychologist writes down everything the subject says or does, no matter how trivial. Analysis of responses is recorded by the test administrator using a tabulation and scoring sheet and, if required, a separate location chart.

  7. Goal of the test: • provide data about cognition and personality variables • such asmotivations, response tendencies, cognitive operations, affectivity, andpersonal/interpersonal perceptions • Underlying assumption: • an individual will class external stimuli based on person-specific perceptual sets, and including needs, base motives, conflicts, and that this clustering process is representative of the process used in real-life situations
