Description

Present study was intended to obtain methodologically valid and efficient information about the assessment of delinquency with the Rorschach Test and the TAT. From among 63 collected literatures on the Rorschach Test and 28 collected literatures on the TAT, 16, 6 literatures were, respectively, selected according to the purpose of this study, and were analyzed mainly from viewpoint of (1) their contribution to the assessment of delinquency, and (2) their methodological advantage. As a result, it was founded that as for the Rorschach Test, (1) until the 1980 s, studies on impulsivity which seemed to influence the occurrence of delinquency for some reason, and those on psychopath and/or conduct disorder which were closely related with the severity of delinquency, had been much pursued by comparing with normal groups or with mild disturbance groups, and (2) after the 1990 s, studies on psychopath and/or aggression , have increased. These findings suggest that hereafter, it is more practical to analyze the mechanism of the occurrence of delinquency with the Rorschach Test for conduct disordered juvenile delinquents, particularly by bringing focus into impulsivity and/or aggression , in Japan.
