Like other projective drawing tests, Wartegg's test is based on the assumption that the content and the qualitative aspects of the drawings reflect the personality of the person drawing. Subjects are instructed to complete the eight drawings, incorporating the given sign into the drawing. For example, a dot is located in the center of square 1. The validity of the Wartegg's test has been questioned because few validity studies exist and the results of those that have been conducted are inconclusive.Įach square is blank except for a small sign, such as a dot or a line that is given as the starting point of drawing.
While Wartegg's test is practically unknown in Anglo-Saxon countries, it is widely used in Latin America, Finland, Italy and German-speaking countries.Ī peculiar feature of Wartegg's test is that, in contrast with its popularity, a lack of research exists concerning the test.
