Allen suggested that while the combinations of multiple dimensions of the stimuli in the Rorschach cards give much influences to the reaction time there is also time delay due to the subjects requirement of recovering and verbalizing a concept which is socially acceptable.
With the measurement of reaction time in 10 Rorschach cards it was attempted to assess the reaction pattern of normal Korean adults.
The results of this study were as follows:
1. In the analysis of variance of reaction time the difference between cards was significant at 0.01 level and the difference between subjects was significant at 0.05 level.
2. According. to the similarity of reaction times, the cards were classified into the following four groups(verified with t-test). First group includes card Ⅴ, second group includes card Ⅰ, Ⅲ and Ⅷ, third group includes card Ⅱ, Ⅳ, Ⅹ and Ⅶ, and fourth group includes card Ⅸ and Ⅵ.
3. In the trend analysis of variance of reaction time the linear regression was significant at 0.01 level (F=67.9097).
4. The linear functions of reaction time variability could be expressed in terms of the equation FRT=RpㆍS+LT, read to FRT(reaction time), Rp(reaction pattern quotient to card situations as subject's constant), S(variation of card situations) and LT(theoretical latent time).
5. In normal adult Rp was 2.64 and LT was 6.3.
6. These results led estabilishing the hypothesis that Rp offers an index to ego function for reality testing and LT offers to the degree of reality approach.
