Introduction

Much has happened since Three Art Assessments was published in 2002. New studies have found that the Draw a Story assessment can be used to identify children and adolescents at risk for violent behavior as well as for depression, and two subgroups of aggression have emerged: predatory and reactive. In addition, there have been new studies of the Silver Drawing Test of Cognitive Skills and Emotion by practitioners in Russia, Thailand, and the United States, and scoring guidelines have been made more precise.
