Drawings of their impressions of their own body images, made by blindfolded persons, were used by Brown and Goitein as a diagnostic method. These drawings were classified in five groups in accordance with Rosanoff's, Kretschmer's and Bleuler's standardization: cycloid, repetoid, schizoid and paranoid. types. The drawings of the average person showed a mixture of characteristics from several groups corresponding to personality trends which could be verified in the psychiatric examination. Asthmatic persons were preponderantly cycloid and repetoid; allergic persons and those suffering from atopic eczema were preponderantly in the hysteroid group. The majority of forty children with hay-fever showed hysteroid and repetoid patterns. Assaultive psychopaths showed a preponderant affinity with the cycloid group.
