Cognitive tempo as a Rorschach color variable.

J M Katz, P M Ziffo

    Journal of Personality Assessment
    |October 1, 1975
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Cognitive impulsivity relates to color responses on the Rorschach test. Impulsive individuals showed more color-based reactions, supporting the hypothesis linking impulsivity and color perception.

    Area of Science:

    • Psychology
    • Cognitive Psychology
    • Personality Psychology

    Background:

    • Cognitive impulsivity, conceptualized by Kagan (1966), influences decision-making and response styles.
    • The Rorschach test, particularly its chromatic plates, is used to assess perceptual and emotional responses.
    • Understanding the link between cognitive style and emotionality is crucial in psychological assessment.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the relationship between cognitive impulsivity and color responding on the Rorschach.
    • To determine if impulsive individuals exhibit different color response patterns compared to reflective individuals.
    • To explore the implications for theories of emotionality and color shock.

    Main Methods:

    • Administered chromatic Rorschach Plates II, III, VII, IX, and X to 73 subjects (30 male, 43 female).

  • Categorized subjects as Impulsive or Reflective using the Matching Familiar Figures Test (MFFT).
  • Analyzed Rorschach responses, focusing on color (C) and color-form (CF) responses.

    • Main Results:

    • Impulsive subjects produced significantly more color (C) and color-form (CF) responses than reflective subjects.
    • A trend towards quicker response times in impulsive subjects was observed, though not statistically significant.
    • The findings supported the hypothesis that cognitive impulsivity is associated with increased color responding on the Rorschach.

    Conclusions:

    • Cognitive impulsivity is demonstrably linked to heightened color responsiveness in Rorschach interpretation.
    • The results have implications for understanding emotionality and the phenomenon of 'color shock' in psychological assessment.
    • This study contributes to the validation of using Rorschach color responses as an indicator of impulsivity.
