projective techniques and abuse reactivity

[ctubiak@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

I am a doctoral student conducting research on the use of children's drawings 
as projective assessment techniques.  

I am interested in investigating whether children's drawings can detect 
sexually reactive behaviors.  Two groups will be compared.  Group 1 will 
consist of children who are receiving treatment for being sexually abused.  
Group 2 will consist of children who are receiving treatment for being 
sexually abused AND for demonstrating sexually reactive behaviors.

I need help identifying specific emotional indicators of sexual reactivity, as 
well as specific projective drawing tests that would be appropriate to measure 
the emotional indicators.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  

Thank you.
