In the Comprehensive System for the Rorschach (Exner, 2003), pair and reflection responses are combined into an Egocentricity Index (EgoI) that is said to measure self-focus and self-esteem. However, validation research over the past 30 years has found at most only limited support for these interpretations. This study suggests an alternative approach derived from Exner's (1969) suggestion prior to the EgoI that pairs and reflections are related to interpersonal perception and in particular to a tendency to perceive similarity. Forty custody litigants completed the Rorschach and Revised NEO Personality Inventory (Costa & McCrae, 1992b) Forms S and R. As the number of reflections increased, the description of the partner and the description of the self became increasingly dissimilar. As pairs increased, the description of the ex-partner on Form R and the self-description on Form S tended to become increasingly similar. This project suggests that pairs and reflections may be differentially related to perceived similarity and that combining them into a summative index may, at least in some circumstances, result in a loss of information.
在《罗夏测验综合系统》(埃克纳,2003年)中,配对反应和反射反应被合并为一个自我中心指数(EgoI),据说该指数用于衡量自我关注和自尊。然而,过去30年的验证研究发现,这些解释至多只得到了有限的支持。本研究提出了一种替代方法,该方法源自埃克纳(1969年)在自我中心指数提出之前的建议,即配对反应和反射反应与人际知觉相关,特别是与感知相似性的倾向相关。40名监护权诉讼当事人完成了罗夏测验以及修订版《大五人格问卷》(科斯塔和麦克雷,1992年b版)的S表和R表。随着反射反应数量的增加,对伴侣的描述与对自己的描述变得越来越不同。随着配对反应数量的增加,R表上对前伴侣的描述与S表上的自我描述往往变得越来越相似。该项目表明,配对反应和反射反应可能与感知到的相似性存在不同的关系,并且将它们合并为一个汇总指数可能至少在某些情况下会导致信息丢失。
