Popis: Previous studies of White, middle-class children with learning disabilities have shown that these youngsters tend to obtain form level ratings on the Rorschach that are significantly lower than would be expected based on Exner's (1974, 1993) normative data. In the current study, these findings were replicated and extended with a slightly older, urban, primarily minority population. The form level ratings of the youngsters tested in the current study were similar to those obtained in the past and suggest that a youngster's age, ethnicity, and lower socioeconomic status do not play major roles in bringing about the lower form level ratings of children with learning disabilities. The clinical implications of these findings are discussed, as are suggestions for future research.
