Abstract
In this study Rorschach data from a Romanian sample of 111 respondents was collected and analyzed in a first attempt to establish national norms. The protocols were collected in a 5-year period (2002–2006) by the author. Interrater reliability statistics are presented for a sample of 20 cases, along with scores for the Rorschach Comprehensive System (CS; Exner, 1993). These results can be used for cross-cultural comparisons of the CS.

Notes
1For the high school students enrolled in the education program, the duration of the training is 5 years.
** p < .01, n = 111.
2For this analysis, SES was used as a dimensional variable where participants with lower SES received 1 point, participants with middle SES received 2 points, and participants with higher SES received 3 points.
*Mean.
**Percentage of people.
3For both the Shaffer–Erdberg–Haroian sample and the Portuguese sample, PureF% was estimated by dividing the average number of F by the average number of responses (R).
