More than two years have elapsed since the Szondi test material became available on the home market, but it seems that the widespread use of the test has been considerably delayed by the lack of a translation of Dr. Szondi's books (1, 2). Susan Deri's Introduction to the Szondi Test (3), which appeared last year, may, however, have enabled some who felt attracted by the test to acquaint themselves with it. The purpose of Deri's book is to give some guidance for the clinical handling of the test and for its interpretation. For the rationale she refers to Szondi's own books.
