Manifest content of Thematic Apperception Test (TAT; Murray, 1943) stories of 30 sexually abused female children and a clinical group of 30 female children with no documented history of abuse was examined using the Scoring Scheme for the TAT and Other Verbal Projective Techniques (Fine, 1955a). The two groups were similar demographically, and did not differ with regard to the overall frequency of negative feelings and outcomes. Significant group differences were found when specific negative feelings were investigated, with subjects in the abuse group having higher frequencies of stated sexual preoccupation than nonabused comparison subjects. In addition, higher frequencies of expressed guilt on the part of abuse subjects can be considered secondary to their overconcern with sexuality. Findings support the utility of the TAT in identifying victims of sexual abuse by the examination of manifest content.
使用《主题统觉测验（TAT）及其他言语投射技术评分方案》（法恩，1955年a版），对30名遭受性虐待的女童以及30名无虐待记录的临床组女童的TAT（默里，1943年）故事的显性内容进行了检查。两组在人口统计学上相似，在负面情绪和结果的总体频率方面没有差异。在调查特定负面情绪时发现了显著的组间差异，受虐组受试者提及性关注的频率高于未受虐的对照受试者。此外，受虐受试者表达内疚的频率较高可被认为是她们对性过度关注的次要表现。研究结果支持了通过检查显性内容，TAT在识别性虐待受害者方面的效用。
