Abstract

|
In this study the MMPI-2 and DDS were administered to examine if the DDS could realize a depression tendency. The participants of this study were 74 adult females. The scoring index of the DDS was based on the drawing analysis index by Cohen(1986) and Juliet(2007). In addition, part of the FEATS formal index were included in the reorganization of the DDS index. The data analysis was conducted using frequency, percentage, and cross tabulation. The findings are as follows. First, in the color index in relation to depression the three drawings showed significant differences in the color energy and color steadiness. The degree of color use and coloring showed significant differences in the line.side.shape. Free drawings and tree drawings showed significant differences in the unique color. Tree drawings showed significant differences in the combination. Second, in the shape index in relation to depression, the three drawings showed significant differences in integration. Third, in the form index in relation to depression the three drawings showed significant differences in pen pressure. In the line.side.shape, free drawings showed significant differences in the line length. In the space use, tree drawings showed significant differences in the line.side.shape. Four, in the contents index, Tree drawings showed significant differences in the representational painting, Some differences were found in the DDS drawings depending on the degree of depression, an indication that the DDS has a potential to be used as a diagnostic tool to provide clinical information.
