title: A projective analysis of guilt: the Holtzman Inkblot Technique.
abstract: The group version of the Holtzman Inkblot Technique (HIT) and the three subscales of the Mosher Guilt Scales (Sex Guilt, Hostility Guilt, and Morality-Conscience Guilt) were administered to 44 undergraduate college females in an effort to determine whether or not high-guilt subjects would demonstrate response inhibition on the HIT. The results indicated response inhibition on the part of high-guilt subjects relative to the HIT Human, Movement, and Integration variables. It was concluded that high-guilt subjects responded to the HIT in a style that was less creative and more perceptually immature than low-guilt subjects.
