Art can be an invaluable means of communication. It can bypass
language and impairment and allow for the expression of thoughts or
feelings too difficult to communicate with words. In The Silver
Drawing Test and Draw a Story, Rawley Silver draws on her years of
experience using therapeutic art with hearing-impaired children,
stroke patients, and others with learning disabilities or emotional
disturbances. The book's original art assessments use stimulus
drawings to elicit responses that provide access to a patient's
emotions and attitudes toward themselves and others, while also
testing for the ability to solve problems and convey ideas.
Offering tools to assess cognitive skills that often escape
detection on verbal tests of intelligence or achievement, the book
helps in identifying those at risk for violent behavior or masked
depression. Thoroughly updated from Silver's earlier works, this
new book includes techniques to assess aggression and depression
that may lead to violence in schools and suicide among children and
adolescents. It also addresses important gender and age
differences, incorporating new information and updated studies, and
it offers an in-depth look at the developmental procedures involved
in these art assessments. As education for mental health
professionals now includes art therapy more regularly, Silver has
provided an invaluable resource for assessing emotional and
cognitive content.
