THE "DRAW-A-MAN" TEST AS A PREDICTOR OF SCHOOL READINESS AND AS AN INDEX OF EMOTIONAL AND PHYSICAL MATURITY

J. M. Coleman M.D.1, Ira Iscoe Ph.D.2, and Marvin Brodsky 2

1 Children's Medical Center of Austin, Texas
2 Department of Psychology, University of Texas, Austin

In summary, the results of this study seem to justify an affirmative answer to each of the original questions forming the basis of this study, provided the physician is alerted to the precautions and reservations mentioned. With these in mind, the "Draw-A-Man" test would seem to be a useful instrument, suitable for the use in a busy office practice. The utility of this technique as a screening procedure certainly seems warranted.
