the clinical application of the Szondi Test in the measurement of the effects of electric-shock therapy, Mrs. Susan K. Deri's chapter which follows represents one of the few authoritative statements in American psychological literature about the use of the test. In recent years, as the Szondi Test has grown in use in this country, there has been an increased concern expressed for understanding the theory on which the method rests. We are of the opinion that not many American psychologists are likely to find themselves in sympathy with the theory, and Mrs. Deri has found no need to state it even briefly here.In seeking to present this projective test through its application in a specific clinical psychological inquiry, she has managed to convey to a remarkable degree the type of information provided and the nature of the inferences that may be drawn by the clinician who proposes to use this method.
