This guide is a much-needed reference for clinicians on how to use
the Rorschach Inkblot Test with senior adults, an essential tool
for assessing personality functioning to better identify
psychological interventions. The book integrates historical
developments, current research, conceptual considerations, and
therapeutic and diagnostic applications. Chapters review basic
guidelines for the understanding and interpretation of Rorschach
variables, including protocol validity; interpretation of
structural variables, thematic imagery, and cross-cultural
normative data; sequence analysis; and more. The authors then
provide 10 case illustrations of how the Rorschach indices of
cognitive functioning, emotional experience, interpersonal
relatedness, and self-perception can facilitate differential
diagnosis and treatment planning in clinical work with older
people. These case illustrations are rooted in previously
non-existent Rorschach reference data based on an international
sample of more than 250 senior adults and a second sample of more
than 200 patients with Alzheimer's disease. Clinicians will come
away with a solid empirical basis for distinguishing between
normal-range personality functioning and manifestations of
psychological disorder in the elderly and for providing beneficial
interventions to senior adult patients.
