In interpreting children's Rorschachs, it is often difficult to discriminate between a severe disturbance and an adaptive reaction to a trauma. To explore this difficult differential diagnostic issue, a child was tested three times. It was suggested that complexity, references to the trauma, and evidence of psychological disturbance are associated with an attempt to master the trauma. Rorschach data were presented and were found to be consistent with these speculations. The author concluded that such "openness" to an environmental stress may allow an adaptive reaction and that understanding Rorschach data in context helps to reduce ambiguity and to recognize the test's limitations.
在解读儿童的罗夏墨迹测验结果时，常常难以区分严重的心理障碍和对创伤的适应性反应。为了探究这一困难的鉴别诊断问题，对一名儿童进行了三次测试。研究表明，复杂性、对创伤的提及以及心理障碍的证据与试图应对创伤有关。文中呈现了罗夏墨迹测验的数据，发现这些数据与上述推测一致。作者得出结论，这种对环境压力的“开放性”可能会引发适应性反应，并且结合背景理解罗夏墨迹测验数据有助于减少模糊性并认识到该测试的局限性。
