ABSTRACT

The last 20 years have witnessed dramatic developments in clinical theory and practice, both within and outside of Rorschach psychology. Developments in Rorschach reflect the emerging rapprochement of two divergent and sometimes antagonistic philosophies of Rorschach interpretation: (a) the nomothetic approach, represented by the work of John Exner; and (b) idiographic and content analytic approaches, deriving from psychoanalytic theory.
