Formal characteristics of stories told about picture cards from the Thematic Apperception Test (TAT) were defined as reflecting the storyteller's ability to accomplish the task and were distinguished from content that expresses the unique concerns of the individual. It was argued that increased emphasis on formal aspects of TAT responses is warranted, because these characteristics can be determined more objectively and are more suitable for direct group comparison. Therefore, the variables included in our study consisted of an integration and expansion of formal characteristics previously developed with adults, which showed promise in differentiating disturbed and normal groups of children. Based on these formal characteristics of TAT stories, 95% of the comparison group members and 85% of the disturbed group members were correctly classified. Emotionally disturbed boys (n = 40) differed from a comparison group (n = 40) on seven formal scoring categories which were hypothesized to differentiate the groups.
主题统觉测验（TAT）中关于图片卡片所讲述故事的形式特征被定义为反映讲故事者完成任务的能力，并与表达个体独特关注点的内容区分开来。有人认为，有必要更多地强调TAT反应的形式方面，因为这些特征可以更客观地确定，并且更适合直接进行组间比较。因此，我们研究中纳入的变量包括对先前针对成年人开发的形式特征的整合与扩展，这些特征在区分儿童的受干扰组和正常组方面显示出前景。基于TAT故事的这些形式特征，95%的对照组成员和85%的受干扰组成员被正确分类。情绪受干扰的男孩（n = 40）在七个形式评分类别上与对照组（n = 40）存在差异，这些类别被假设用于区分两组。
