The present study tried to separate 30 hospitalized borderline and 30 hospitalized neurotic patients by indicators of deviant thinking. Kolb and Gunderson's diagnostic interview for borderlines and the Holtzman Inkblot Technique (HIT) were applied as diagnostic instruments. It was possible to separate the two groups by the more severe degrees of deviant thinking with relatively high values for sensitivity and specificity (83 and 93%). If these results can be corroborated in cross-validations with independent samples, the HIT would be a very useful instrument for the discrimination of the two diagnostic groups.
本研究试图通过异常思维指标对30名住院的边缘型患者和30名住院的神经症患者进行区分。采用科尔布和冈德森针对边缘型患者的诊断访谈以及霍尔兹曼墨迹技术（HIT）作为诊断工具。通过更严重程度的异常思维能够区分这两组患者，其敏感性和特异性相对较高（分别为83%和93%）。如果这些结果能够在独立样本的交叉验证中得到证实，那么HIT将是区分这两个诊断组的非常有用的工具。
