Abstract:
The Rorschach inkblot test (RIBT) is a standardized projective technique. It uses a subjective way of collecting and mapping responses of different regions like large (D) and small details (d). In this paper, eye tracking parameters like Initial Fixation Location, SF Ratio, Mean Fixation Duration and Mean Return are used to develop some objective measures which would be helpful in the assessment of the Rorschach responses. The study was conducted on 25 normal subjects who were administered RIBT cards I, II and X. The result shows an initial tendency to fixate in the central regions of the Rorschach cards. Computation of SF ratio helps in understanding most frequently fixated regions leading to popular response. Certain locations of each card have high attentional value where most shifts and fixations occur. The study supplements to the information obtained by the subjective scoring of RIBT and also indicates that specific eye tracking parameters could be an objective marker for personality assessment with RIBT.
