THE RORSCHACH TEST
A number of people write to
ask me, "What is Uie Rorschach
test?"
Herman Rorschach was a
Swiss psychiatrist born in HUM.
He became interested in trying to
learn about the sanity or mental
processes of a person by asking
him what he thought he saw in
an ink blot. In 1921, he wrote
a book on the diagnosis of men
tal troubles with the help of
such blots.
Before him, far back in 1857,
a certain Justinus Kcrner stud
ied ink blots, and in 1895, the
famous Dr. A. Binet of France,
the originator of modern intellig
ence testing, suggested the use
ol ink blots for the study of
personality traits. All of these
students of the subjects hoped,
with their technic, to understand
the nature of a person's "imag
inative activity.
Today, most psychologists use
10 Rorschach cards (chosen out
of some 10,000), and the person
being tested gives his impress
ion of what he sees. Dr. George
F. Scacat, Ph. D of the Vet
erans Administration Center in
Los Angeles, thinks that most
psychologists would prefer not
to give an opinion on the result
of only one lest like the Ror
schach. They would rather use
a battery of tests. Much de
pends, of course, on the com
petence of the interpreter. But
the Rorschach test seems to be
a useful tool in understanding
"borderline diagnostic cases."
Shown Pictures
In another test ol this type,
the person is asked quickly to
complete Irom SO to 00 incom
plete sentences, such as, "1
wish my father . . .," and in si ill
another lest, the person is
shown ,'11 pictures and asked lo
give his impressions of Ihem.
What always bothers me
about these tests is that I have
never been able to find good
proof that people who use them
have Inter checked up with an
open mind to see whether Hie
conclusions derived eventually
proved to have been correct.
For instance; Dr. Scacat says
that today in many big corn
panics men are being chosen
as employees or for certain
types of work, or for promotion,
on the basis of these tests. What
1 look (or in vain are good ar
ticles showing whether the de
cisions made by the company
psychologists were later found
lo be 50 or 60 or 70 per cent
accurate.
Similarly, (or years I have
been reading accounts o( the
axlcnsivc menial lesls they give
In the men who arc to be
chosen for fighler pilots in our
army. But I have never seen a
report of a check-up lo see if
(he tesls given were worth a
hoot.

General Chcnault used to say
that one of his fighters might
be a bit crazy or alcholic or
wilh one wooden leg. bill that
was all right so long as the
fellow kept shooting down en
emy planes.
Auto Safely Hell
As we all know, everyone is
now being advised when driv
ing an automobile on the high
way, to wear a seat-belt. There
is no question that in many an
accident a person's life could
easily have been saved by such
a bell. Several of my friends
were killed because when their
car was hit, a dour opened and
they were thrown out into the
street. There they were instan
ly run over and killed by a
passing car.
But as Drs. W. M. Cocke, Jr.,
and K. K. Meyer of New Or
leans said a while ago, one
must be careful to wear the
belt in the proper place. To il
lustrate: a short, stocky 62-
year-old woman was a passcn
gcr, sitting in the front seal of
an automobile which struck
another automobile broadside at
25 miles an hour. The driver,
who had no scat belt, was un
injured, but the woman com
plained that the scat bell she
had been wearing had hurl her
abdomen and had left a red
dened band across the upper
part where she had been hurl
She had a big fat abdomen, and
the left upper part of it was
found lo be tender to the touch.
X-ray films showed fractures
of the 7th and 8th ribs in front.
When, five hours after entering
a hospital the woman went into
a state of shock, her abdomen
was opened, and her spleen was
found to be badly smashed.
Fortunately, when the wounds
in her spleen were sewed up,
she recovered.
The lady had made two mis
takes: one, she had left the
scat-belt so loose that when she
was thrown forward, her abdo
men came up against the belt
with a bang. As the doctors say,
she would not have gotten into
trouble if she had had the bell
around her lower abdomen, and
if the belt had been hitched up
tightly over her hip bones and
pelvis. She should not have
had it lying loose across her
upper abdomen.
The doctors quoted reports of
a number of other physicians
who have described similar In
juries that followed a wrong use
of a seal bell.
One of Dr. Alvarez' most re
cent booklets is called "Hard
ening of the Arteries, and Cho
lesterol." Because the topic is
related to heart attacks, many
readers will want a copy of it.
You my obtain it bv sending

keep him constantly under the

squirms.
German men consider the
American husband a sucker
because of the way he handles
his money. In Germany many
women can't say (or sure how
much their husband earns be
cause it isn't considered any o(
their business. They accept
whatever housekeeping money
they receive and keep their
mouths shut.
British men shake their
heads in wonderment over the
way American men arc bullied
by their children, especially the
teen-agers. "Children in this
country," notes the London bu
reau of UPI, "are more to be
seen then heard. When com
pany comes, the chldren arc
fed separately." A thorough
whacking on the seal of the
pants, both at school and at
home, is still highly esteemed
in Britain as a corrective meas
ure. Frenchmen cannot under
stand why Americans work
themselves to death to provide
things their family doesn't real
ly need. Their most prevalent
theory is that the American
husband is a sort of voluntary
slave indentured for life to a
woman who lashes him period
ically with demands for jewel
ry, expensive clothing and hats
she doesn't need. French wives
accept as a fact of life that it
is possible to cook a meal and
dispose of the dish-i without
the help of enough electric
kitchen gadgets to operate a
space capsule.
Marries Earlier
The American male plunges
into marriage at an earlier age
and with less thought than any
man on earth. Every behavior
expert who studies the situa
tion notes the increasing num
ber of teen-age marriages, and
the subsequent high divorce
rale. Onlv seven per cent of
the American women in their
thirties have never been mar
ried. Comparable statistics for
Great Britain are 18 per cent
and for France 28 per cent.
One out o( every 4.5 Ameri
can marriages ends in divorce,
the world's highest rale. There
is no way to measure the num
ber of men who remain mar
ried even though they are un
happy, and, as one philoso
pher puts it, "leading lives of
quiet desperation." Apparently
only a small percentage of
these men seek the assistance
of marriage experts and coun
selors, and Dr. Paul Popcnoc
of the American Institute of
Family Relations cites (he case
history of one of Ihem:
"Mr. H said: 'I put in a full
day at the factory and by the
time I get home about a quar
ter to six I am glad to lie
down and rest. But my wife
meets me at the door and tells
me the two kids arc driving
her crazy and will I please
take them off her hands.' And
will I at the same lime v.icj

porch ni'd the sidewalk and

The American standard of
living is the highest in the
world, and American women
expect to start enjoying it as
soon as they are married, or
at least without allowing suffi
cient time for the husband's
income to rise to the level of
their needs and wants. Sociolo
gist James W. Gladden of the
University of Kentucky got
some interesting answers when
he conducted a survey among
girls on what they expected
their husbands to do besides
support them:
Seventy per cent said they
expected outside help.
Fifty-four per cent expect
ed their husbands lo straighten
up the house occasionally.
Forty-four per cent de
manded that the husband pre
pare the meals occasionally.
Fifty-four per cent said
they expected their husbands to
make the beds, "but only rare
ly." Sixty per cent expected
him to dispose of the garbage
every day.
There was general agree
ment that husbands should re
member birthdays, anniversar
ies and other "special" days,
that husbands should be adept
in "adapting themselves to the
various moods and changes so
typical of women," that wives
should be treated after mar
riage just as they were before.
Rules Changed
After marriage, a new set of
rules apparently is drawn up in
the feminine mind, and Dr.
Popenoe tells the results of a
survey among women in Co
lumbus. Ohio, on what the ideal
husband should do. Some of
them:
Tell interesting things about
his work. Do thoughtful things
the wife docs not expect him to
do. Sense when his wife wants
affection and when she doesn't.
Clean out the bathtub and wash
! basin after using them. Appre
I ciate and praise new dishes the
wife prepares. Know how to
pull the wife out of the
I dumps when she gets into
them. Always telephone when
he is going to be late to din
ner. Never talk about his for
mer girl friends. Enjoy reading
and discussing good books with
his wife.

they do to marriages.
