    A new computer program for the Rorschach Inkblot Test (RIT) shows comparable results to traditional methods. This RIT software offers a reliable digital alternative, with minor differences in location and time scores.

    Area of Science:

    • Psychological Assessment
    • Computer Science
    • Psychometrics

    Background:

    • The Rorschach Inkblot Test (RIT) is a widely used projective psychological assessment.
    • Traditional administration involves manual recording and scoring, which can be time-consuming.
    • Developing digital tools for psychological assessments can enhance efficiency and standardization.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and evaluate an interactive computer program for administering the Rorschach Inkblot Test.
    • To compare the performance and inquiry phases of the computer-administered RIT with traditional methods.
    • To assess the reliability and validity of the computer-based RIT through a test-retest design.

    Main Methods:

    • An interactive computer program was created in BASIC for the RIT's performance and inquiry phases.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Subjects entered perceptions into a database, guided by on-screen instructions.
  • Klopfer scoring questions were administered by the computer, and scoring was automated.
  • A test-retest design with 30 subjects compared computer administration to psychologist administration.

    • Main Results:

    • The computer program successfully administered both performance and inquiry phases of the RIT.
    • Scoring determinants between computer and psychologist administration were correlated.
    • No significant overall differences were found, except for location and time scores, where the medium (computer vs. traditional) showed variation.

    Conclusions:

    • The interactive computer program for the Rorschach Inkblot Test is a viable and comparable alternative to traditional administration.
    • The study demonstrates the potential for digital tools in psychological assessment, with high correlation in scoring determinants.
    • Further research may explore the nuances of location and time scores in computer-mediated assessments.
