  • Title: An evaluation of three Bender-Gestalt scoring systems as indicators of psychopathology.
    Author: Field K, Bolton B, Dana RH.
    Journal: J Clin Psychol; 1982 Oct; 38(4):838-42. PubMed ID: 7174818.
    Abstract:
    Quantified Bender-Gestalt protocols of 120 clients using the Hutt, Pascal-Suttell, and Pauker scoring systems. Scores were correlated with two criteria of psychopathology, diagnosis of psychiatric disability and self-reported anxiety, and age and IQ. The results suggest that: (a) Ratings of B-G protocols are highly reliable; (b) B-G scores are not predictive of global psychopathology; and (c) B-G scores are correlated moderately with age and IQ. This evidence does not support the validity of B-G scoring systems as indicators of psychopathology.
