Signs of schizophrenia in the draw-a-person test
The draw a person test is one of the most frequently using psychological tests. Its diagnostic benefit is orientational, therefore it makes it possible to examine a possibility of consequential psychopatological phenomenons. The draw a person test reflects the presence of florid psychotic symptoms and presence of negative symptoms, especially cognitive deficits in schizophrenia. We differentiate empirically specific phenomenons in particular types of schizophrenia in the drawing.
Keywords: draw a person test, schizophrenia, cognitive functions.
