Responses **
Criterion
Form answers. Used for responses based exclusively on the form features of
the blot.
Movement
FM
Pure color response. Used for answers based exclusively on the chromatic
color features of the blot. No form is involved.
CF
Color-from response. Used for answers that are formulated primarily because
of the chromatic color features of the blot. Form features are used, but are of
secondary importance.
FC
Form-color response. Used for answers that are created mainly because of
form features. Chromatic color is used, but is of secondary importance.
Cn
Color naming response. Used when the colors of the blot are identified by
name, and with the intention of giving a response.
Pure achromatic color response. Used when the response is based exclusively
on the grey, black or white features of the blot, when they are clearly used as
color. No form is involved.
CF
Achromatic color-form response. Used for responses that are created mainly
because of the black, white, or gray features, clearly used as color. Form features
are used, but are of secondary importance.
FC
Form-achromatic color response. Used for answers that are based mainly on
the form features. The achromatic features, clearly used as color, are also
included, but are of secondary importance.
Pure texture response. Used for answers in which the shading components of
the blot are translated to represent a tactual phenomenon, with no consideration
to the form features.
TF
FT
Form-texture response. Used for responses that are based mainly on the form
features. Shading features of the blot are translated as tactual, but are of
secondary importance.
Pure vista response. Used for answers in which the shading features are
interpreted as depth or dimensionality. No form is involved.

Vista-form response. Used for responses in which the shading features are

Color Projection

FV
Form-vista response. Used for answers that are based mainly on the form
features of the blot. Shading features are also interpreted to note depth and/or
dimensionality, but are of secondary importance to the formulation of the
answer.
Pure shading response. Used for responses that are based exclusively on the
light-dark features of the blot that are completely formless and do not involve
reference to either texture or dimension.
YF
Shading form response. Used for responses based primarily on the light-dark
features of the blot. Form features are included, but are of secondary
importance.
FY
Form-shading response. Used for responses that are based mainly on the form
features of the blot. The light-dark features of the blot are included as
elaboration and/or clarification and are secondary to the use of form.
Form-Dimension
FD
Form based dimensional response. Used for answers in which the impression
of depth, distance, or dimensionality is created by using the elements of size
and/or shape of contours. No use of shading is involved in creating this
impression.
(2)
The pair response. Used for answers in which two identical objects are reported,
based on the symmetry of the blot. The objects must be equivalent in all
respects, but must not be identified as being reflected or as mirror images.
rF
Reflection-form response. Used for answers in which the blot or blot area is
reported as a reflection or mirror image, because of the symmetry of the blot.
The object or content reported has no specific form requirement, as in clouds,
landscape, shadows, etc.
Fr
Form-reflection response. Used for answers in which the blot or blot area is
identified as reflected or a mirror image, based on the symmetry of the blot.
The substance of the response is based on form features, and the object reported
has a specific form demand.

A Z score is assigned to any response that includes form, and meets at least one of the
following criteria:
1. ZW. Is a Whole response that has a DQ coding of +, v/+, or o, (answers that have
a DQ coding of v are never assigned a Z score).
2. ZA. Is a response in which two or more separate objects, perceived in adjacent
detail areas of the blot (areas that touch), are reported in a meaningful relation.
3. ZD. Is a response in which two or more separate objects, perceived in non-adjacent
(distant) detail areas of the blot (areas that do not touch), are reported in a
meaningful relationship.
4. ZS. Is a response in which white space is integrated with other areas of the blot in
forming a response.
