“…This confirms our hypothesis. Although there has been some disagreement regarding whether production of high-level whole responses is related to intelligence (Friedman & Orgel, 1964), several authors have demonstrated such a relationship with both children and adults. These findings 7--8 years 10-11 years 13-14 years have been based both on developmental level scores (Goldfried, 1962;Kissel, 1965) and on production of complex whole responses (Allison & Blatt, 1964;Marsden, 1970;Rosenblatt & Solomon, 1954).…”

Rorschach protocols of both black and white children from 7 to 14 years of age, who had been evaluated at a child guidance clinic, were rescorcd with respect to developmental level of perceptual integration, It was found that black children had higher perceptual-integration scores in comparison to their white counterparts. This finding, however, was accounted for by the higher performance of low-IQ (70-89) black subjects as compared to low-IQ white subjects. No differences were obtained between average-IQ (90-109) black or white children. It is suggested that standard IQ tests may not adequately tap the cognitive capacity of some black children and that use of the Rorschach from a developmental-structural perspective may provide a useful adjunctive measure of intelligence that would more realistically assess children's cognitive competence.This research was undertaken while the second author was a predoctoral and postdoctoral fellow in child-clinical psychology at the Irving Schwartz Institute for Children and Youth.

This study investigated and compared the validity of the proposed “High Score” (HS) approach to scoring two Rorschach measures of cognitive development, Friedman's Developmental Level (DL) and Exner's Developmental Quality (DQ). These two measures were scored by the HS approach, and the resulting HSDL and HSDQ scores were examined in relation to age and five WISC‐R indices of intelligence. These results were compared with those obtained when the same relationships were examined with the previously validated Wilensky (W) approach to scoring DL and DQ. In both instances the same sample was used: 134 children aged 5 to 16 years. The findings supported the validity of the HS approach—both HSDL and HSDQ generally showed the expected relationships with age and IQ. Also, HSDL and HSDQ had higher correlations with the WISC‐R indices than did the corresponding WDL and WDQ scores. The HS approach did, however, hinder DQ's (but not DL's) discriminatory power with regard to IQ levels.
