The Effects of State Anxiety and Limited Social-Evaluative Stress on the Rorschach

Pages 150-154 | Published online: 10 Jun 2010
 

Abstract

It is generally assumed that Rorschach shading responses (Sh) are related to anxiety, especially state anxiety. To test this hypothesis, 60 nonpatients were administered Rorschachs, 30 under high social-evaluative stress and 30 under minimal stress. The high stress group reported more state anxiety but no more Sh than did the other group. These negative findings were interpreted as suggestive of the test's lack of sensitivity to mild, laboratory social-evaluative stress.
