Rorschach responding in traumatized children and adolescents

Abstract

Abstract At this time there are no published articles which would allow an interpreter to determine if children or adolescents have been traumatized on the basis of responses on the Rorschach. It is important to identify these children when planning counseling interventions and academic programs since information concerning victimization experiences of children is often withheld by parents or guardians. In a preliminary study, ten Rorschach variables were investigated and results show significant differences between the traumatized group and the Exner Comprehensive System normative data for children and adolescents for the following variables: space, texture, W Sum C, D Score, passive movement, X+%, and 3r+2/R. Hypothesized significant differences in active movement, and morbid or aggressive responses were not found.
