Principles of Rorschach interpretation
Description
Book Introduction
This book integrates Rorschach's structural, thematic, behavioral, and serial data into a systematic interpretation guide.
Part 1 covers the basic considerations of Rorschach, the conceptual and empirical foundations of the inkblot method, and the main points regarding the formalization and justification of Rorschach's inferences.
Part 2 details the normative criteria for the research findings, and Part 3 illustrates, through case studies, how the interpretive principles described in Part 2 can be used to elucidate adaptive strengths and weaknesses in personality functioning and how this information can be applied in clinical practice.
