ABSTRACT

In the first edition of The Clinical Application of MMPI Special Scales, Levitt (1989) featured a chapter on coordinated use of the MMPI and Rorschach. Surprisingly, he made just a passing reference there in a footnote to his volume on the Rorschach (Levitt, 1980a). That book remains notable for Levitt’s perceptive collating of interpretations made by seven major Rorschach systems that preceded Exner’s (1993) Comprehensive System (CS). After collating the systems’ treatments of 13 structural and three content variables, he identified a common interpretive core for each variable (Levitt, 1980a, Appendix 3).
