Rorschach Comprehensive System Data for a Sample of 108 Normative Subjects From The Netherlands

Abstract

The current study is part of a two-wave normative data collection study with the Rorschach Comprehensive System (CS; Exner, 2003) in The Netherlands. The first data wave yielded 108 valid Rorschach protocols for which descriptive data on CS variables were calculated. Interrater reliability between two raters for 10 response segments on a subset of 24 protocols was good to excellent. The findings show that mean values for a number of important CS variables, such as EA, Egocentricity index, and WDA% in the Dutch sample are highly similar to those found in a recent U.S. study by Shaffer and colleagues (2007/this issue). On the other hand, the Dutch sample contains a higher percentage of subjects with positive scores on the DEPI and CDI, compared with the Shaffer et al. data, but to an even greater extent in comparison with Exner's (2001) nonpatient data. We argue, on the basis of findings from psychiatric epidemiology, that the exclusion of subjects with a history of mental disorder or mental health treatment from Rorschach normative data bases yields a dataset that is nonrepresentative of the general population.

“…The negative values indicate no agreement at all; zero also shows no agreement while 1 represents perfect agreement (McHugh, 2012). de Ruiter and Smid (2007) argue that Cohen's Kappa is equivalent to the coefficient iota. This implies that the interpretation of the values of the two coefficients is similar.…”

“…This implies that the interpretation of the values of the two coefficients is similar. Coefficient iota is defined as a chance corrected reliability for multivariate data (de Ruiter & Smid, 2007). Coefficient iota was used to report the inter-rater reliability for this study, and it was found to be 0.967.…”

“…Na perspectiva de focalizar ainda mais a pesquisa bibliográfica, adicionou-se o descritor "Normas", restringindo os achados bibliográficos ao foco principal deste estudo. A partir de então, foram identificados sete trabalhos, dos quais quatro (Nascimento, 2007;Van Patten, Shaffer, Erdberg & Canfield, 2007) (Ikiz, Zabci, Dusgor, Atak, Yavuz, Purisa, & Catagy, 2010;Shweta, Baipai, Sengar, Singh, & Desai, 2010;Riquelme & De Taub, 2008;Azoulay et al, 2007;Chaudhury, Sudarshan, Seb, Saluja, Srivastava, & Kundeyawala, 2007;Lelé, 2006;Singh, Singh, & Singh, 2005;Sultan, Andronikof, Fouques, Lemmel, Mormont, Réveillère, & Saïas 2004;Nascimento, 2002), distribuídos em diversos periódicos, tratam de amostras de idades distintas e apenas dois deles abordam a faixa etária adolescente, a saber: o de Azoulay et al (2007), anteriormente descrito, e o de Ikiz et al (2010 (Berant, 2007;Campo & Vilar, 2007;Daraglou & Viglione, 2007;De Ruiter & Smid, 2007;Dumitrascu, 2007;Greenway & Milne, 2007;Hamel & Shaffer, 2007;Hansen, 2007;Ivanouw, 2007;Lunazzi et al, 2007;Matsumoto et al, 2007;Mattlar et al, 2007;Meyer et al, 2007;Mormont et al, 2007;Nakamura et al, 2007;Nascimento, 2007;Pertchik & Shaffeer, 2007;Pires, 2007;Ráez, 2007;Salcuni et al, 2007;Sanz, 2007;…”
