Rorschach-related question - opinions wanted...
 

Hello people,
I am reading for a M.Sc at the Royal Institute of Techonology of Stockholm and sometime soon I have to finalise on my thesis.... having said that I am trying to get some opinions on an idea I have.
I am thinking of making my thesis about Rorschach-type interfaces or even Rorschahc-type games..... My thoughts are not towards the classical (clinical) application of the Rorschach pictures, rather whether such an interface/game would be interesting...
I hope I am making sense! :D

Pano-

I've had a long standing interest in using projective testing as a path finder for asking better questions in clinical interviewing following such testing. I'm not sure what kind of application you're speaking about, but I am interested!. So let me know.

(I wish the original registration simply asked us to use our real names, since any other designation can make this seem more a chat room)

Please don't takethis comment about the use of screen names as hostile! When I first registered I used my screen name too, but once I entered this site and realized that all the forum leaders use their names, I saw no reason to use my screen name, so I requested that my registration name be changed.

Thanks,
Doug

Check a game called "Thinkblot" at:
http://www.partygamecentral.com/pgcs...p?gn=THINKBLOT.

(From a web site on Rorschach) "Rorschach based his idea in part on a popular children's game known as "blotto." While working at an adolescent psychiatric ward, he observed that children with certain illnesses gave characteristically similar answers when describing the images in the game."
