Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The construct of self-esteem is a significant aspect of an individual's sense of worth, thus shaping attitudes and behavior about the self. Projective art techniques can reflect the individual's self-concept in various ways. In the present study, the Human Figure Drawing (HFD) created by Koppitz (1968) was utilized to determine if the size of the drawn figure is an effective measure of self-esteem. Participants in this study included 47 undergraduate students. Figure height and area were measured from the HFD and self-esteem was measured by using the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSSE; Rosenberg, 1965). It was expected that larger and taller figure drawings would correlate with higher self-esteem scores. Results for this studey were not significant, but other trends were noted. Individuals who scored in the high range for self-esteem were much more likely to include teeth in their figure drawings. Additionally, there were weak correlations noted in an exploratory analysis based on gender.

Book excerpt: First published in 1988. Child therapists have long been fascinated by children's human figure drawings and what they reveal about self-image, feelings, and' family relation­ ships. Now this comprehensively researched volume provides a valuable introduction to using children's human figure drawings as projective measures in a variety of settings. The principles for interpreting drawings, as well as general and specific indicators, are illustrated in 85 children's drawings. Part I on The Theory deals with the background of projective psychology, discussing art as a projective technique and emphasizing that all behavior, including drawings, reflects personality, attitudes and values. The authors examine the major methods of obtaining diagnostic information and recommend the use of several methods for best results. Part II on The Application examines in detail the projective use of children's human figure drawings to evaluate personality, relationships (particularly in families), group values, and attitudes. In each area, research is presented, directions for administration of various tests are given, and guidelines for interpretation are offered. Significant factors are revealed in numerous children's drawings, accompanied by clinical comments. Of special interest is the presentation of original research on group values among Canadian Indian (Saskatchewan Cree) children and on attitudes of young children toward teachers, doctors and other authority figures as revealed in human figure drawings. For psychologists, social workers, teachers and other child-care professionals, as well as students in these fields, this is an indispensable basic guide to interpreting human figure drawings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The human figure is one of the earliest topics drawn by the young child and remains popular throughout childhood and into adolescence. When it first emerges, however, the human figure in the child's drawing is very bizarre: it appears to have no torso and its arms, if indeed it has any, are attached to its head. Even when the figure begins to look more conventional the child must still contend with a variety of problems: for instance, how to draw the head and body in the right proportions and how to draw the figure in action. In this book, Maureen Cox traces the development of the human form in children's drawings; she reviews the literature in the field, criticises a number of major theories which purport to explain the developing child's drawing skills and also presents new data.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study, human figure drawings scored using the Koppitz's (1968) emotional indicators were correlated with self-esteem measured using the Self-Perception Profile for Learning Disabled Students (SPP-LD; Renick & Harter, 1988). It was hypothesized that the number of emotional indicators would correlate negatively with self-concept as measured by the SPP-LD. Participants were fourteen 3rd and 4th grade males and females ranging in age from eight to eleven from a special education program. The participants completed the SPP-LD questionnaire and draw a human figure in a single group session. Results showed no statisically significant relationship between the number of emotional indicators present and SPP-LD scores.
