Abstract
Summary An investigation of the effectiveness of the Franck Drawing Completion Test (FDCT) as a simple projective technique to study the relationship between movement responses and creativity. The FDCT protocols of 800 high school students equally divided in terms of sex, creative versus control status, and fields of achievement were studied. The chi square analyses of these tests show that creative Ss in the fields of art and writing gave significantly more human movement responses than their controls at the .01 level or better, and there was a consistent trend for the creative Ss to give more animal and inanimate movement responses. Findings support the theory that openness to fantasy and impulse expression is a common characteristic of the mental processes giving rise to the production of both human movement responses and artistic-literary works.
