Behavioral signs of trauma on the Rorschach
The TEI is a promising new Rorschach-based method of assessing psychological processes associated with trauma reexperiencing. For future studies, we recommend more diverse samples and various trauma-specific criterion variables. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
Legal Admissibility of the Rorschach and R-PAS
The special issue editors selected us to form an "adversarial collaboration" because our publications and teaching encompass both supportive and critical attitudes toward the Rorschach and its recently developed system for use, the Rorschach Performance Assessment System (R-PAS). We reviewed the research literature and case law to determine if the Rorschach and specifically R-PAS meet legal standards for admissibility in court. We included eviden…
Narcissism and Reactions to a Self-Esteem Insult
We used self-reported narcissistic grandiosity and vulnerability and a component derived from 11 potential grandiosity and narcissism variables (GNVs) coded from Rorschach behavior to predict fluctuations in self-esteem and their links to anger and defensive reactions. We assessed state mood, state self-esteem, and performance attributions in 105 college students who underwent a self-esteem manipulation involving success followed by failure on co…
Standards, accuracy, and questions of bias in Rorschach meta-analyses
Wood, Garb, Nezworski, Lilienfeld, and Duke (2015) found our systematic review and meta-analyses of 65 Rorschach variables to be accurate and unbiased, and hence removed their previous recommendation for a moratorium on the applied use of the Rorschach. However, Wood et al. (2015) hypothesized that publication bias would exist for 4 Rorschach variables. To test this hypothesis, they replicated our meta-analyses for these 4 variables and added unp…
The validity of individual Rorschach variables
We systematically evaluated the peer-reviewed Rorschach validity literature for the 65 main variables in the popular Comprehensive System (CS). Across 53 meta-analyses examining variables against externally assessed criteria (e.g., observer ratings, psychiatric diagnosis), the mean validity was r = .27 (k = 770) as compared to r = .08 (k = 386) across 42 meta-analyses examining variables against introspectively assessed criteria (e.g., self-repor…
Exploratory Factor Analysis
Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) is a statistical method used to answer a wide range of research questions pertaining to the underlying structure of a set of variables. A primary goal of this chapter is to provide sufficient background information to foster a comprehensive understanding for the series of methodological decisions that have to be made in an EFA and how those decisions can impact factor solutions. Topics addressed include determini…
The Incremental Validity of Psychological Testing and Assessment
There has been insufficient effort in most areas of applied psychology to evaluate incremental validity. To further this kind of validity research, the authors examined applicable research designs, including those to assess the incremental validity of test instruments, of test-informed clinical inferences, and of newly developed measures. The authors also considered key statistical and measurement issues that can influence incremental validity fi…

Amplifying issues related to psychological testing and assessment
February 2002 • American Psychologist able to improve on the validity of their assessment conclusions (Garb, 1998; Grove, Zald, Lebow, Snitz, & Nelson, 2000). Because Meyer et al. (2001) provided an overly optimistic evaluation of current psychological assessment practices, many readers of their article are likely to conclude that the scientific status of psychological assessment is firmly established. Unfortunately, nothing could be further from…
