A projective personality test, the unrestrained structure of the Rorschach® allows for a variety of responses. In order to use the Rorschach® properly, professionals need an authoritative source of advice and guidance on how to administer, score, and interpret it.

Written in an engaging, easy-to-read style, Essentials of Rorschach® Assessment places particular emphasis on the evaluation of adult personality using Exner’s Comprehensive System. The authors review the strengths and weaknesses of the Rorschach®, and offer valuable advice on its clinical applications, exciting new research data, and several illuminating case reports.
