Abstract

Abstract The effect of test order upon the production of Rorschach animal content was evaluated by administering a projective battery to 40 male children at a child guidance center. The control group received in predetermined sequence the Rorschach, DAA, and the CAT. The experimental group was administered in order the DAA, CAT, and the Rorschach. The control (N=20) and experimental group (N=20) were matched on the dimensions of age, sex, examiner, psychiatric status, R, and IQ. Subjects who were administered tests emphasizing animal drawings and animal stories prior to the Rorschach administration produced significantly more animal content than the control group. The data suggests that the sequence of individual tests given in a battery can exert a significant influence on the productivity of content in the Rorschach test.
