On the Declining Use of Projective Techniques in School Psychology: A Response to Piotrowski (2019).

This article is a response to the recent editorial by Piotrowski (2019). In our article (Benson et al., 2019), we reported results from a national survey of the tests and assessment practices used by contemporary school psychologists in the United States. We appreciate Piotrowski's (2019) acknowledgement of our results as offering a keen perspective on the emerging status and breadth of assessment practices, specific to the field of school psychology? (p. 75). Our article focused on a wide range of assessment practices, and Piotrowski's concerns pertained largely to our presentation and discussion of results regarding projective techniques.
