“…Six relatively consistent dimensions of the Rorschach scored according to Beck (Beck, 1937) or Exner (Exner, 2003) systems have been identified by means of multivariate analyses (i.e. factor analysis FA or principal component analysis PCA): Productivity, a factor essentially defined by the total number of responses and which explains most of the variance of Rorschach data (Meyer, 1992b; Murstein, 1960; Schori & Thomas, 1972; Wittenborn, 1950; Wood, Krishnamurthy, & Archer, 2003); Form Dominance, a factor composed of form-dominant color and shading responses (Costello, 1998; Schori & Thomas, 1972; Shaffer et al, 1981; Zillmer & Vuz, 1995); Color Dominance regroups color and some shading responses with vague or no form (Costello, 1998; Geertsma, 1962; Mason, Cohen & Exner, 1985; Shaffer, Duszynski, & Thomas, 1981; Wittenborn, 1950; Zillmer & Vuz, 1995); Perceptual Accuracy , a bidirectional dimension with ordinary form qualities on the positive pole and poor form qualities on the negative one (Geertsma, 1962; Wood, Krishnamurthy, & Archer, 2003; Zillmer & Vuz, 1995); Kinesthesis, a factor composed of Human Movement and related variables (Geertsma, 1962; Schori & Thomas, 1972; Shaffer et al, 1981; Wittenborn, 1950); and Synthesis, a factor mainly composed of whole responses ( W ), perceptually organized responses ( Zf ), and synthesis responses ( DQ+ ) on the positive pole, and pure form responses ( F, F% or Lambda ) on the negative one (Anderson & Dixon, 1993; Geertsma, 1962; Mason et al, 1985; Schori & Thomas, 1972; Shaffer et al, 1981; Wood, Krishnamurthy, & Archer, 2003; Zillmer & Vuz, 1995). However, these six dimensions were not identified in each of these studies, which raises the question: “what are the dimensions of the Rorschach ?”.…”
