Using Projective Methods With Children ─ The Selected Works of Steve Tuber

Using Projective Methods with Children is an enhanced synthesis of Steve Tuber’s previously published research on the study of projective methods to assess the representations of self and others, as well as the actual interpersonal experiences children internalize in the form of these representations. Integrating conceptual and empirical work, with an emphasis on the Rorschach Inkblot Method (RIM), the book offers unique, evidence-based information on the importance of assessing particular aspects of a child’s inner self. The studies cover a broad range of topics such as dreams, anxiety disorders, political oppression, homelessness, and multiculturalism, and each is supplemented with an analytical introduction. A section that discusses future areas of research is also included.

Steve Tuber, PhD, is the author or editor of six critically acclaimed books and more than one hundred papers on the intertwining of assessment and treatment in children, adolescents, and adults. He is a professor of psychology, program head, and director of training at the doctoral program in clinical psychology at the City College of New York, CUNY.
