Description

Critical appreciations of George A. De Vos, a pioneer in the cross-cultural application of projective techniques (M.

Suarez-Orozco, P. Lerner), and De Vos's own reminiscences, are followed by contributions true to the spirit of De Vos's methodology.

They include a demonstration of the usefulness of projective tests in the psychodiagnostic evaluation of schizophrenia (J.

Stone, P. Wilson & B. Boyer); an examination of the role of historical events in the development of Chinese and Japanese personality characteristics (J.

Connor); a review of the impact of Freudian and Jungian thought in India (S.

Kakar); and a study of loss and grief in a community of the North American Great Plains (H.

Stein).
