For a test to be used by psychologists here in Brazil, the Federal Council of Psychology requires that validity and reliability research be carried out with the results of participants from the Brazilian population. Thus, we conducted studies with the CAT-A with children who were victims of domestic violence and with conduct disorders. Studies were also carried out with the CAT and TAT, as well as with the CAT and Duss’ Fables. in addition to comparisons between the ages and gender of the participants. Reliability was established in an inter-rater agreement study.

For the CAT-H, a study was carried out with children victims of domestic violence and comparing the results of the CAT-H with the TAT, in addition to the study of themes evoked by the stimuli (cards).

About other CAT validity and reliability research, I’ll get some references and send them to you.

Regarding BAT: Is this material you sent me the final version you are going to use for marketing?

5-2 EL TEST CAT-A, UN INSTRUMENTO PARA EVALUAR VÍNCULO, UNA EXPERIENCIA DE 30 AÑOS, CON POBLACIÓN CHILENA Isolda Ximena Muñoz Hagel1

ABSTRACT IN ENGLISH The objective of presenting this case is to share the experience of applying the CAT-A projective test, at the relationship level, for 30 years. I will present a case, heterosexual adult couple, who apply for a child adoption process. An objective of the process is to know the psychological functioning of the couple and mainly, the potential in relation to the exercise of parental functions, considering that the children to be adopted have lived in a state of abandonment. Processes carried out in a state institution. The instrument is the CAT-A in its link application modality, a modality invented by the author in 1992. The relationship evaluation with CAT-A allowed knowing the potential around the parental functions of the dyad, skills, resources, strengths and weaknesses, as well as the functioning of each of the members.The differences observed between different couples and concordant with the results of other tests, give validity and reliability to the instrument in this version.The feedback given to the couple allows them to enhance their abilities or work on conflicts that could make the parenting task difficult. In 1992 I began to use this application modality of the CAT-A, based on the case of a child who could not enter the consultation alone. I applied CAT-A bindingly, which allowed a broader and deeper understanding of the case. This led me to study Winnicott and later other authors, which would allow me to support this work and understand the relevance of linking in children’s problems.

Projective tests have also been utilized in assessing children and adolescents in custody matters. In the Ackerman study (Ackerman and Ackerman, 1997), only 8% of respondents reported that they did not test children. The Children’s Apperception Test (CAT) was the most widely used instrument, with 37% of respondents reporting use of the test in custody cases, and those respondents reporting that the CAT was used 53% of the time.
