The Szondi Test has recently been added to the fast-growing number of projective techniques. It is named after its originator, the Hungarian psychiatrist, Dr. Lipot Szondi, who now lives in Switzerland.
The test consists of forty-eight photographs of faces of mental patients; these are divided into six sets, each of which contains the photographed face of a homosexual, a sadist, an epileptic, a hysteric, a catatonic schizophrenic, a paranoid schizophrenic, a manic-depressive depressive, and a manic-depressive manic. The back of each card contains a Roman numeral which stands for the series number, an Arabic numeral which identifies the rank number of the picture within the series, and an initial, which describes the specific type of mental disorder of the photographed mental patient.
