Abstract
The SORT was administered to 25 neurotic patients in a Veterans Administration Hospital and the 15 scores for each S were compared with SORT norms for 200 employed telephone workers. Significant differences in favor of Rorschach rationale were obtained for 4 of the 15 SORT variables. One of these four variables, Fch, which measures anxiety on the standard Rorschach and whose content and concurrent validity have been challenged in recent studies of college students' SORT performance, was significant at the .01 level. This pilot study supports the construct validity of Rorschach rationale for the 15 SORT variables when applied to neurotic patients.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
