摘要：Tyrimu siekta empiriškai patikrinti Žmogaus piešinio: Kiekybinio įvertinimo sistemos (ŽP: KĮS) ir Žmogaus piešinio: Emocinių problemų atrankos procedūros (ŽP: EPAP) psichometrines savybes. Mokslinių publikacijų šia tema Lietuvoje ir užsienyje yra gerokai mažiau negu yra ŽP naudojimo poreikis. Ištirti 165 vaikai / paaugliai (klinikinę grupę sudarė 95 tiriamieji, jiems būdingi įvairūs elgesio / emociniai sutrikimai, palyginamąją grupę – 70 vaikų / paauglių). Rezultatai liudija silpną konkurencinį ŽP: KĮS validumą palyginus su jei Wechslerio vaikų intelekto skale IIILT. ŽP ir WISC-IIILT rezultatai klinikinėje grupėje labai skiriasi: kai vaikas mėgsta piešti, jo intelekto lygis (įvertintas atsižvelgiant į piešinius) priskiriamas aukštesnei klasifikacijai nei nurodo WISC-IIILT rezultatai; jei nemėgsta piešti – stebėta atvirkštinė tendencija. Tarpgrupinis rezultatų palyginimas atskleidė, kad projekcinės metodikos ŽP: EPAP požymių visuma leidžia diferencijuoti abiejų grupių tiriamųjų piešinius, tačiau 61 proc. klinikinės imties vaikų piešinių buvo įvertinti blogesniais balais, negu yra įvertinamas ryškus emocinių problemų lygis. Pastebėta, kad ŽP metodikos patikimumas yra aukštas. Pagrindiniai žodžiai: vaikų / paauglių psichologinis įvertinimas, Žmogaus figūros piešinys, validumas, patikimumas. THE ANALYSIS OF PSYCHOMETRIC PROPERTIES OF HUMAN FIGURE DRAWINGS’ TEST Dalia Nasvytienė Summary The present study investigated whether Human Figure Drawings (HFD) can be considered as valid and reliable devices to assess the intellectual abilities as well as the emotional adjustment in the practice of child psychologists. HFD are most popular of all drawing techniques often included in test batteries as relatively short, easy-to-administer, friendly and nonthreatening measures. Contradictory empirical evidence concerning their psychometric properties is presented with the aim to overcome the gap between large scale of the practical use and relatively small amount of scientific investigations. Draw-A-Person: A Quantitative Scoring System (DAP:QSS) and Draw-A-Person:Screening Procedure for Emotional Disturbance (DAP:SPED) created by Naglieri J. and colleagues were chosen as the most modern and objective scoring systems in regard to other HFD. Both techniques and WISC-IIILT were administered to clinical sample consisting of 95 children aged 6–16 with emotional / behavioral disturbances and 70 children without clinical disturbances closely matched for the age and gender criteria. T-test, correlations, discriminant and exploratory factor analysis were applied for data analysis. Results suggest that DAP:QSS shortly meets standards of concurrent validity with WISC-IIILT as it was found no statistically significant correlations with the scores of Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-IIILT (p > 0.05). A dditionally, noncognitive factors – liking to draw and clinical disturbance – can cause biased results of assessment of intellectual abilities when using DAP: QSS: liking to draw correlates with the higher results as compared to WISC-IIILT scores, while intellectual abilities of the children with clinical disturbance were underestimated (p = 0.00). Standard error of estimation appeared to be higher when using DAP: QSS than WISC-IIILT. The total score of Draw-A-Person:Screening Procedure for Emotional Disturbance was significatly higher in the clinical sample (p = 0.00). It proves the validity of this instrument to screen the children for emotional maladjustment but the cases of false negative screening cast doubt about its strength. Both devices showed good reliability (internal consistency as well as inter-scorer). Key words: Human Figure drawing, reliability, validity.
