A case study comparison of the Draw-A-Person and Kinetic Family Drawing.
A case is presented illustrating the diagnostic and therapeutic value of human figure drawings. The case study, an 11-year-old boy recovering from viral encephalitis, compares two projective techniques--the Draw-A-Person and the Kinetic Family Drawing. The tests were administered pre- and post-treatment. The relative merit of each technique within the therapeutic context is discussed.
