The Utility of Rorschach in Forensic Psychiatric Evaluations – A Case Study

The use of the Rorschach Comprehensive System (RCS) in forensic psychiatric evaluations has evoked criticism. This study examined the use of the RCS in forensic psychiatric evaluations by studying to what extent a valid interpretation and an assessment can be made on information based solely on the RCS. Psychological assessments (N 34) based solely on RCS information were compared with the responses made by a forensic psychiatrist who had evaluated one offender. Agreement was found in 14 of 19 statements, which were related to the capacities and personality characteristics underlying criminal responsibility and mental state at the time of offense. The findings support the use of the RCS in forensic psychiatric evaluations, although no explicit conclusion can be drawn from one case. Further studies with more cases are needed.
