Essentials of Rorschach Assessment: Comprehensive System and R–PAS

Essentials of Rorschach Assessment provides an invaluable resource for clinicians, offering the only step–by–step guidance toward all aspects of the Rorschach Comprehensive System and Rorschach Performance Assessment System (R–PAS). Beginning with an overview of the tests? history and development, the discussion delves into each test separately before placing the two side by side for direct comparison of administration, coding, and interpretation. The same case study is used for both tests, providing a start–to–finish example of how the Comprehensive System and R–PAS differ, and practical resources including checklists, charts, and sample forms help ease implementation, use, and transition. Thorough explanations break down the jargon and technical language to give clinicians a clearer understanding of both tests without sacrificing precision or depth of information, providing a quick and easy reference for Rorschach personality assessment.
