Objectives: The use of painting and storytelling as a projective method has been a long-standing way of defining children's problems. The aim of this study was screening maladjusted children using children apperception test and projective drawing test.
Method: The study design was causal-comparative without control group. The statistical population of current study was all children between 3 to 10-year-old of Sabzevar city in the summer of 2013. The sample was 25 children that selected by convenience sampling method. The children were evaluated by House-Tree-Person Drawing test and Children Apperception Test. Data was analyzed by multivariate analysis of covariance.
Results:It was found that maladjustment index of projective painting (p≤0/05) and needs (p≤0/05 (can significantly separate well-adjusted and maladjusted children, but stress cannot separate two groups. (P≥0/05).
Conclusion: Using projective test such as children apperception test and house-tree-person drawing can distinguish adjusted and maladjusted children each other.
