    This study failed to replicate Rorschach findings suggesting increased transparency and cross-sectional responses in individuals who commit suicide. Rorschach scoring categories did not differentiate suicidal and nonsuicidal groups.

    Area of Science:

    • Psychological assessment
    • Forensic psychology
    • Clinical psychology

    Background:

    • Previous research suggested specific Rorschach response patterns in individuals who commit suicide.
    • These patterns included increased transparency and cross-sectional responses.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To replicate previous findings on Rorschach responses in suicidal individuals.
    • To investigate other Rorschach scoring categories potentially associated with suicide risk.

    Main Methods:

    • Compared Rorschach responses of suicidal individuals with matched nonsuicidal controls.
    • Analyzed transparency, cross-sectional, and other specified Rorschach scoring categories.

    Main Results:

    • Neither transparency nor cross-sectional Rorschach responses differentiated suicidal and nonsuicidal groups.

  • Other examined Rorschach scoring categories also failed to distinguish between the groups.
  • Conclusions:

    • The study failed to replicate previous Rorschach findings related to suicide.
    • Social class and/or IQ differences may explain the failure to replicate earlier results.
