To contribute to an understanding of the magazine picture collage as a clinical assessment device, experienced psychiatric staff from various disciplines were asked to distinguish the collages of hospitalized psychiatric patients from those of paired controls, to note whatever descriptive and dynamic features about the individual that could be inferred from the collage, and to document what specific aspects of the collage were used in drawing the inferences. The raters, on the basis of the collage, were not able to distinguish the patients from the controls but were able to derive highly accurate inferences. The results were taken to indicate that, while the collage is best used as a means of assessing psychological processes as contrasted with assigning a diagnosis or predicting behavior, more rigorous research is needed to relate collage factors to personality factors.
为了促进对杂志图片拼贴作为一种临床评估工具的理解，来自不同学科的经验丰富的精神科工作人员被要求区分住院精神科患者的拼贴画与配对对照组的拼贴画，记录从拼贴画中可以推断出的关于个体的任何描述性和动态特征，并记录在进行推断时使用了拼贴画的哪些具体方面。评分者基于拼贴画无法区分患者和对照组，但能够得出高度准确的推断。结果表明，虽然与进行诊断或预测行为相比，拼贴画最适合用作评估心理过程的一种手段，但需要更严格的研究来将拼贴画因素与人格因素联系起来。
