Goodenough-Harris Drawing Test
The Goodenough-Harris Drawing Test is a psychological assessment designed to evaluate a child's intellectual development through their drawings. Developed by Dr. Florence Goodenough in 1926 and later revised by Dr. Dale Harris, the test involves asking children to draw a person. The resulting drawings are then scored based on specific criteria, such as detail and proportion, which can provide insights into the child's cognitive abilities.
This test is often used in educational and clinical settings to identify potential learning difficulties or developmental delays. It is considered a projective test, as it allows children to express themselves creatively while revealing aspects of their cognitive and emotional development.
