Comparison of Computer-Administered Harris-Goodenough Draw-A-Man Test with Standard Paper-And-Pencil Administration

Abstract
A comparison of raw scores obtained by two different modes of administering the Harris Revision of the Goodenough Draw-A-Man Test was made. Forty adolescents, 20 boys and 20 girls, computer naive and matched for age and school grade, completed the drawing test by the traditional paper-and-pencil mode and through a computerized administration. Employing an ABBA design to balance sequence effects, analysis indicated no significant correlation between the scores attained on the two differential modes for boys, girls, and all subjects. The application of computers in the assessment of perceptual motor indices and tests of figure drawings is discussed.
