Studies on the stability of the human figure drawing
Within a sample of 2,428 children from San Luis, Mendoza and San Juan, Argentina (1983), the standards of evaluation for 5 and 6-year-old children proposed by Koppitz (1968) and those developed in Ottawa by Groves and Fried (1991) are compared to Taborda-Barbenza’s ones (1993) with the aim at establ...

| Sumario: | Within a sample of 2,428 children from San Luis, Mendoza and San Juan, Argentina (1983), the standards of evaluation for 5 and 6-year-old children proposed by Koppitz (1968) and those developed in Ottawa by Groves and Fried (1991) are compared to Taborda-Barbenza’s ones (1993) with the aim at establishing HFD stability in different populations. This comparative study was also carried out in 127 4-year-old children from San Luis and Villa Mercedes, Argentina, taking into account the frequency of scores recorded in Ottawa and those registered in San Luis and Villa Mercedes. The different items were classified in terms of percentages: 100-86 %, expected; 85-51 %, common; 50-16 %, uncommon and 15-0 %, exceptional. Results show that modifications proposed in this work for the evaluation of HFD make the scale even more valid, even although the HFD is a competent instrument for having a stable measure. |
