The authors have designed two variants of the "verbal projective test" (VPT) in view of the lack of a projective method genetically similar to the TAT, according to which, however, emotionally saturated, indefinite phrases as regards the content could be used as stimulus material. Theoretically, it could be of special interest in psychopathological cases associated with thinking disorders, as well as "compensate" for the tendency toward TAT aging. Using VPT 19 probands with little progressive neurosis-like schizophrenia and 19 probands with lingering neuroses were examined. The findings were estimated polyfactorially in terms of the main assumptions of TAT interpretation but with a mandatory inclusion into the analysis of the lexico-grammatical evaluation of the stories. It has been established in the course of the work that the leading differences in the delimiting of neuroses and little progressive neurosis-like schizophrenia are emotional disorders (their character and intensity) diagnosed, equally to certain thinking disorders, with the aid of the new method. It has been also shown that the new VPT is fit for analysis of the speech of the persons suffering from various mental disorders.
鉴于缺乏一种在遗传上与主题统觉测验（TAT）相似的投射方法，作者设计了两种“言语投射测验”（VPT）变体。然而，根据TAT，情感上饱和且内容不确定的短语可作为刺激材料。从理论上讲，它可能对与思维障碍相关的精神病理病例特别有意义，并且可以“弥补”TAT老化的趋势。使用VPT对19例轻度进行性类神经症型精神分裂症先证者和19例持续性神经症先证者进行了检查。根据TAT解释的主要假设对结果进行了多因素评估，但在分析中必须纳入对故事的词汇语法评估。在研究过程中发现，借助新方法诊断出的情感障碍（其特征和强度）以及某些思维障碍，是区分神经症和轻度进行性类神经症型精神分裂症的主要差异。还表明，新的VPT适用于分析患有各种精神障碍者的言语。
