Talk:Ink blot test

Adding to this article.
Hello my name is Shannon Cusick and I would like to edit the Ink blot test page as part of an assignment for my History and Systems of Psychology class. This is the information I would like to add.

About Ink blot test
The Ink blot test is made up of four categories, known as the "Cognitive Quartet". The first category within the Cognitive Quartet is productivity. Productivity is tested by the amount of distinct images the patient reports seeing within the inkblots. The second category is complexity/synthesis. This is tested by looking into the patients tendency to categorize the inkblots elements into actual images. The third category is form quality. This is tested by how well the image described by the patient accurately reflects the shape of the blots within the test. The fourth category is deviant verbalization. This tests speech patterns within the patients responses through out the test. Also can be used to test odd thoughts or behaviors from a patient. Of these four categories, there are occasionally hybrids of the categories. These combine two or more of the variables being tested into one score. The most common quartet hybrid would be the Perceptual-Thinking Index (PTI).

Duplicate of "Rorschach test"?

 * Is there any difference between the two articles?

Should be deleted
If there exist no widely-used inkblot tests other than the Rorschach test, this article should be removed and changed to a redirect to the Rorschach test article, which could cover other minor inkblot tests, if any. David Spector (talk) 14:01, 26 September 2017 (UTC)

Hello
Hi all, as part of a course assignment, we have worked on upgrading the content of the article. I have added it but have not deleted or edited existing content, if you have any thoughts on the intro please let me know. Thanks! Psych480 (talk) 04:06, 1 May 2018 (UTC)


 * I fail to understand how the changes improve the article. I would like to see a written justification for these changes, so I undid them. Also, since this article appears to be a duplicate of the existing article Rorschach test, I'm not sure it is worth working on as a separate article. The two articles should be merged, with "ink blot test" becoming a Redirect. David Spector (talk) 10:44, 1 May 2023 (UTC)
