Abstract
The serial administration of individual and consensus Rorschachs to a subject with his friends, with his roommates, with his wife, with a high-low status pair, by himself, his wife alone six months later, reflect differences attributable to these differing social contexts. The changes can be conceptualized as adaptations to variations in the particular group's conflicting expectations as manifested in terms of content polarities. A smaller quality persists which we can call character or uniqueness. The process of mutual influence and accommodation can be studied by the identified patient's Rorschach responses to the group's consensus Rorschach agreements and disagreements.Keywords
