A critical and comparative review is presented of all existing studies on responses by female homosexuals to projective and nonprojective tests. Although much of the data is contradictory, there is some consistency of findings on Rourschach protocols and other instruments. Evidence also indicates that female homosexuals seem to differ from male homosexuals in psychodynamics and to have no more psychopathology than heterosexual female controls
