β¦ Synopsis
Bender-Gestalt protocols of 22 paretic and 24 schizophrenic males, ages 50-60, matched as groups for "degree of psychiatric illness,'' were scored according to the Pascal and Suttell technique. The fact that the raw score means of the groups, 67.32 and 49.62 respectively, differ a t the P<.05 level, implies that the Bender-Gestalt so scored is sensitive to cortical deficit, although overlap precludes diagnostic use of the scores. Our data also support the finding of Pascal and Suttell that psychotics may be differentiated from normals by this system.
