The relationship between psychological test results and EEG patterns in healthy children

“…This rises first of all the question of the validity of the scoring methods and standardisation of the tests. Bender herself did not indicate any objective scoring method, and consequently with time, a large number of scales have been worked out (Hutt , 1945;Billingslea, 1948;Kitay, 1950;Peek & Quast, 1951;Gobetz, 1953;Keller, 1955;Wewetzer, 1956;Stewart & Cunningham, 1957;Hain, 1964). The methods that have gained acceptance are Koppitz (1966) scales for children and Pascal & Suttell (1951) for adults (also for certain age-groups of children).…”

“…One of the most complete validation studies of a less frequently used projective technic, the Bender-Gestalt Test, was completed by Gobetz (39). He administered it to 108 white, male veterans classified as neurotics by their scores on the MMPI, and 285 white, male veteran controls in an attempt to determine whether it discriminated validly between such groups.…”

Consistency of reproductions of Bender-Gestalt designs

“…Errors on three scoring points were equally divided. Goebte (2) reports that some deviations were more characteristic of normals than of neurotics. Inconsistencies in the choice of the component parts of Design 2 were equal in both media t o the number of correct responses, The cards purchased for this research presented these parts as oval in shape.…”
