Extract

My aim in abstracting the material for this article from experiments with upwards of 350 subjects has been to offer a few additions to the deductions it is possible to make from the Rorschach test, and to criticize and evaluate its general aims. The number of subjects studied approached that from which Rorschach derived the conclusions embodied in his monograph Psychodiagnostik. Among these is a group of 100 normals, the investigation of which should afford an interesting combination with the findings obtained by P. E. Vernon from an equal number of similar subjects.
