Abstract

Attempted to replicate previously reported findings that individuals who commit suicide give a greater number of transparency and cross-sectional responses on the Rorschach than matched nonsuicidal Ss. In addition, a variety of other scoring categories reported in the literature as being more frequent in suicidal Ss were compared for suicidal individuals and their matched controls. However, neither the transparency and cross-sectional category nor the other response classifications differentiated the groups. Social class and/or IQ differences in the samples used were suggested as a reason for the failure to replicate the earlier study on cross-sectional and transparency scores.
