Description
Summary:"The following pages describe the technic of and the results thus far achieved in a psychological experiment which, despite its simplicity, has proved to be of value in research and in general testing. At the outset it must be pointed out that all of the results are predominantly empirical. The questions which gave rise to the original experiments of this sort (1911) were of a different type from those which slowly developed as the work progressed. The conclusions drawn, therefore, are to be regarded more as observations than as theoretical deductions. The theoretical foundation for the experiment is, for the most part, still quite incomplete. It must also be noted that there has been constant checking of the observations on normal subjects against observations of patients, and vice versa"--Introduction.

"The widespread and growing interest in the Rorschach test among Englishspeaking workers has made apparent the need for a more easily availahle source of information concerning Rorschach's original and basic work than the German Editions supply. This English Translation is presented in the hope of filling that need. Hermann Rorschach himself considered his Psychodiagnostics a mere beginning. Anyone acquainted with Rorschach's method and who has worked with it to any extent will recognize how difficult it would be for another to prepare a new edition. Rorschach's method is an expression of his own personality so that method and the personality of its author are inextricably interwoven."
