Some observations on the validity of the Rorschach Inkblot Method

Article Abstract:

A research review shows that the Rorschach Inkblot Method is valid and useful in differentiating state and trait personality variables, measuring developmental maturation, monitoring change in psychotherapy, and assessing experienced distress in posttraumatic stress disorder. Predictive validity of Rorschach variables is less extensive than their concurrent validity. However, careless and incompetent use of Rorschach Inkblot Method can lower its psychometric soundness and practical utility.
