Can Projective Test Measures Aid in the Detection and Differential Diagnosis of Reading Deficit?

Abstract

Summary Comparison of Bender, H-T-P and Rorschach measures for good readers and three types of poor readers among preadolescent boys indicated that high organic, constricted scores and immature Rorschach patterns characterized poor readers. Lower organic scores and expansive reactions suggested emotional deficit. Withdrawn, constricted, dependent patterns and high F- suggested specific deficit. Combined scores identified deficit and differentiated between emotional and specific deficit for 98 percent, and between organic and non-organic deficit for 90 percent of cases. Projective tests can aid in diagnosis of reading deficit.
