Relation of Motor Performance to Perceived Movement in Rorschach Inkblots

Abstract

rnzary.-The present study examinecl the claim that an inverse relationship exisrs between the perception of movement and the production of motor activity. Since studies of motor activity ancl of perceived movement indicated that each is multidimensional in character, it was hypothesized, and the results obrainecl confirmed the fact, that no such inverse relationship exists. It was concluded that no simple inter-relational concept such as proposed by Herman Rorschach ancl by the Werner-Wapner sensory-tonic theory can be used as the basis for examining complex sensory and sensory-motor interactions.
