The contaminated Rorschach response: formal features.
Collected 100 contaminated Rorschach responses and scored for location, form level, presence of human content, populars, color use, movement, and confabulation in an effort to delineate the most salient characteristics of this rarely occurring psychotic and thought-disordered response. The unexpected finding of extremely high form level and much human and popular content, along with relatively little confabulation, points to preserved reality contact in tandem with grossly disordered thought. The relatively high incidence of both color and movement in these responses raises questions about the context in which contaminations are likely to occur. There appears to be a need for further clarification of the contamination response process.
