What do you see first in the picture? Psychological definition of personality. What do the scribbles we unconsciously draw mean? Let's recognize the human psyche from a drawing

The smallest “artists” (up to 3 years old) draw seemingly meaningless lines and circles on a piece of paper.

A little later (by the age of 4-5) the idea of the drawing appears - mom, dad, animals, house. How he draws a person, what colors he uses - all this can provide a psychologist with sufficient information to interpret a child’s drawing.

A specialist, using children's psychological tests based on drawings, can feel the child's mood, identify the cause of fears, detect hidden tension and even serious problems of mental development. Parents who do not have professional skills in the psychology of children’s drawings can also get an idea of the baby’s state of mind. To do this, just ask the child to draw a family, providing him with pencils or felt-tip pens of all possible colors.

Psychology of creativity: what children's drawings say

Interpretation of a drawing by color

Take a look at your child’s creation and try to guess what the child’s drawing says based on the main color. Psychology interprets colors as follows.

The predominance of pastel shades in the drawing(blue, pink, purple) speaks of harmony and personal freedom. For “pink” babies, tactile sensations are important, hug them and kiss them more often.
Predominance of red indicates the child’s openness and activity. As a rule, such a baby is excitable, restless and often disobedient. However, there is nothing to worry about, because this is just his individual feature. Such children are full of energy. As they grow up, they will be able to achieve success in life.
If a child's drawing is made in blue, in psychology this is a sign of balance. Such children are calmer and more leisurely.
Green– the color of stubbornness and perseverance. Light green indicates the need for protection. Dark green should alert parents – the child lacks attention and love. Such children grow up withdrawn, so from a very young age they need to be nurtured to be open and instill confidence in security.
According to the psychology of children's drawings, yellow– the color of a dreamy baby with a lively imagination and a well-developed imagination. These kids love to play alone, using abstract toys (various twigs, pebbles, etc.).
If a child draws orange sky, orange mom– this is a sign of excitement that has no outlet. It is difficult to calm such babies, so it is better to direct their energy to helping their parents around the house. It’s very good if among these things there is one that will arouse the child’s interest.
Prevalence purple– an indicator of high sensitivity. This is a creative person with a rich inner world. These are vulnerable children who need affection and encouragement more than others.

The predominance of dark shades in a child’s drawing should definitely cause concern. Psychology says the following about this.

Brown: negative emotions, health problems, experiencing family troubles.
Grey: poverty, rejection, isolation.
Black: Stress, threat and even psychological trauma.
Dark red (burgundy with shades of black): depression, anxiety.

The predominance of these colors indicates problems for which it is better to immediately consult a psychologist.

Pressing the pencil

Weak pressure indicates timidity and passivity. If your baby constantly erases lines with an eraser, this is a sign of uncertainty and anxiety. Strong pressure is evidence of emotional tension. And if the pressure is so strong that the paper tears, this indicates conflict and...

Position and size of the picture

The image at the top of the sheet is a sign of high self-esteem or daydreaming. The location of the small picture at the bottom of the page means emotional distress, low self-esteem, depression.

If the drawing turned out to be so large that the child glued another piece of paper to it in order to complete the missing part, this is an indicator of an anxious state. Also, such drawings are often drawn by hyperactive children.

Analysis of a child's drawing

Interpretation of a person’s drawing in psychology is carried out by art therapists, psychologists, and social workers. When interpreting a child's drawing, it is important to take into account the child's age. Three-year-olds turn out to be “cephalopods”, this is normal. However, it is still better to judge the psychology of children’s drawings from the point of view of the psycho-emotional state of the “artist” when the child is 4, 5 or 6 years old.

Joyless faces in the drawing or their absence, threatening facial expressions and gestures- may indicate emotional distress in the child. However, experts reassure: you shouldn’t judge by one picture. It’s a completely different matter when all the child’s drawings, created on different days and months, have a similar tendency towards gloom.

When analyzing a child's drawing, it is worth paying attention to its structure, comparing the real composition of the family with that depicted on paper. For example, the girl Olya did not draw her younger sister among other family members. There is jealousy towards the younger sister, a feeling of lack of attention. The same thing is said when Olya draws her sister larger in size than herself.

If the baby has not depicted himself, this is a sign of loneliness and a serious reason to think about family relationships.

Also note in what order does the child draw people?. The character drawn first is the main one for the child. A family member, depicted sideways or backwards, is in a tense relationship with the author of the drawing or in a quarrel with him.

During the psychological decoding of children's drawings, look at what the family members depicted are doing. When they are doing something together and are drawn close to each other, this is all a sign of family well-being. But the fragmentation of the characters speaks of discord in the family.

Children's psychological tests based on drawings

In their work, specialists often use children's psychological drawing tests for children, in which they ask the child to draw a family, the same girl, the same boy, or other situations. Based on the drawing, the psycho-emotional state and personal development of the baby are assessed. Let's look at examples.

Boleslav Guppka

It's been a while since you did any soul-searching with us. Therefore, we have found for you a psychological test that is simple to perform, but very effective in terms of the results obtained. Go through it - and such secrets of your “I” will be revealed to you that you will want to destroy all our servers out of harm’s way.

So, first of all, you have to run away and hit your head against the wall (preferably on the corner) as hard as you can. Now let's count the points. Stop! We're a little confused. This is a completely different test.

For today's test you will need a pencil and an A4 sheet of paper.

Got it?

Now draw an animal that definitely does not exist anywhere in the world, even in Australia and Pripyat.

The main condition: avoid ready-made templates, your animal must be absolutely unprecedented. You cannot draw either incredible characters already invented by someone else (Cheburashka), or those creatures that you have loved to draw since school (the five-armed sparrow). Draw an animal that is completely new to our world.

And don’t forget to call her by the same new name for this dimension.

Draw in silence, without witnesses.

Draw! What are you waiting for? For the purity of the experiment, you should not know any more details about this test. To make it easier for you to stop reading and start drawing, we'll fill the next couple of lines with some nonsense. Pew-pew-pew! Smoke-smoke! Woo-woo! Zhzhzhzhzhzh. Bloop-blup-blup! Let's draw already! Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Plop plop plop!

Projection spotlight

It's time to explain what you just did.

The psychodiagnostic test “Drawing of a non-existent animal” belongs to a very large group of projective techniques (“Rorschach Blots”, for example, from the same opera). Perhaps you will feel some pride if you find out that the author of the “animal” test was not some Viennese psychoanalyst, but psychologist Maja Dukarevich, who developed this technique in the last century in the wilds of the Institute of Forensic Psychiatry. Serbian.

“The projective technique assumes that the features of your personality are projected onto everything you do, say or, as in this case, draw,” explains consulting psychologist, self-attitude specialist, candidate of psychological sciences Tatyana Sviridova.

When you draw without relying on ready-made templates (that’s what you did, right?), your personal characteristics begin to crawl out of you onto the paper and leave traces in every squiggle.

The brain follows the path of least resistance, and it is easiest for it to project itself onto the sheet.

This is (very, very briefly) the theory.

Now, when we begin to analyze the drawing point by point, looking for your conscious and unconscious ideas about yourself in it, you will either agree (“Yes, that’s exactly who I am!”), or go into deep unconsciousness (“Bullshit!”). Both are indicators that the test is working. In the second case, rejection is the result of the work of defense mechanisms, since, while drawing, you tried to hide a lot from yourself. (Alas, nothing can be done: you are just a platypus raised by a human family.) This, of course, does not mean the infallibility of the technique. “Many factors can affect the result, from fatigue to the length and sharpness of the pencil.” Be that as it may, possible deviations are not critical and, in general, the test gives a fairly accurate indication of your personal characteristics.

Let's get started!

Position of the picture on the page

In an ideal world, an ideal person who accepts himself for who he is would draw his unknown animal in the center along the middle line of the sheet.

Congratulate yourself if you are just such an ideal individual.

“The closer the animal is to the top edge, the higher your self-esteem,” our consultant is quick to please you. Perhaps you really are that good, but it also shows dissatisfaction with your current situation. In addition, you lack the recognition of others, and, having climbed higher, you have betrayed your desire to please everyone (for this, you strive with all your might to meet the norms accepted in your circle).

If your drawing is located at the bottom, you are not too confident and indecisive. It looks like you've already accepted your fate. However, perhaps it’s all about ordinary fatigue or the handcuffs with which you are fastened to the radiator in this dark basement.

Having dealt with the top and bottom, let's move on to other coordinates. According to Carl Jung and the collective unconscious:

the left side of the sheet means the past; right - future; and the middle is the present.

Left? You are prone to introspection and reflection. You tend to replay an old conversation in your head for a long time and come up with new witty remarks that you didn’t think of right away (“How come I didn’t think of telling the hooligans that they shouldn’t hit me?!”). You are a man not of action, but of intention.

Is your amoeba's head pointing to the right? Good sign! You not only plan something, but you always begin to implement your plans.

The animal that you depicted full-face, not taking its eyes off you, speaks of egocentrism. This can also be interpreted in such a way that you are a contact person who easily makes acquaintances.

“You should also pay attention to which direction the entire figure is more shifted,” says Tatyana.

In a picture of a cheerful, healthy, successful person (such people usually live in bank advertisements), the animal should be evenly located in all three times and directed from the past to the future.

If the pattern is pressed to the left side- perhaps this is due to a negative experience gained in childhood that still comes back to haunt you (your parents’ divorce or the meatball that your singing teacher threw at your collar in the second grade). Or maybe recent events have again reminded you of an old experience and moved the beast to the left.

A strong move to the right can be interpreted as a defensive reaction. You are running from the present (or the same past) to the future. You live in hope for tomorrow. However, if tomorrow is Saturday, you can understand.

General impression

Non-existent animals, like those existing on the Animal Planet channel, are divided into those who:

threatens others(for example, something toothy); who everyone threatens(something hare-like); who hasn't decided yet(saber-toothed hippopotamus).

Whoever you choose as your totem is a reflection of how you see yourself in this world. Are you a bug or an elephant - draw your own conclusion.

If your specimen wears human clothing or is too anthropomorphic(at the same time, she doesn’t have to resemble a humanoid, just being upright is enough), then you, baby, are emotionally immature and infantile.

Our expert is almost one hundred percent sure that you, being a normal person, cannot draw the genitals of your beast(“This is typical only for young children who are not yet sufficiently aware of the norms”). Otherwise, you are not completely healthy, your control functions are weakened. Even the banal udder (the image of a woman’s breast) on your owl reveals your unhealthy fixation on sex.

Dimensions and proportions

Medium size drawing, looking harmonious on the page (it may be clumsy, but organically inscribed on the sheet), indicates a positive attitude towards the world and oneself.

Too big animal- narcissism. Alternatively, the hefty creature may appear as a personal defense mechanism. “Very large animals are most often drawn by preschoolers. Children invest their high self-esteem in drawings of huge animals,” explains Tatyana. Your gigantomania may also be caused by a reaction to recent stress.

Little critter at the bottom of the page- a sign of mental problems. This is unlikely to apply to you, but keep in mind: nanoanimals are usually drawn by schizophrenics and other people with an interesting brain structure. So that tiny winged booger* that Carlson once drew, alas, makes one look at his actions in a new light.

* Note Phacochoerus "a Funtik: « A Very Lonely Rooster,” watercolor, 1955. Exhibited at the Stockholm Museum of Modern Art »

“In addition, mentally ill people tend to be sketchy and sophisticated in their interpretation of drawings,” added our consultant. To our question about how a drawing can be schematic and sophisticated at the same time, Tatyana gave an example: “A man draws a stick with legs and says that this is Emperor Paul.” Hm, but the stick with legs really looks like Pavel!

Quills, horns, shell - in general, everything that serves as protection for the animal can be replaced in the drawing simply by a careful outline drawn several times.

Therefore, immediately note for yourself: even if your creation at first glance is defenseless in front of the world, this is not at all true if some lines and protrusions are thicker than others.

The most important thing is which side of your animal the armor is on.

If the shell covers the animal from above, you protect yourself with it from those in relation to whom you are in a subordinate position. This could be management, government agencies, or just parents.

If the animal's bottom is closed, you are afraid of those whom you consider your equal, or those who are even weaker than you. That is, you fear for your authority.

Armor on the sides shows your readiness for self-defense in any life situation. “At the same time,” Tatyana emphasizes, “drawing the lines on the right indicates that you value your taste, preferences and beliefs very much and are ready to fight for them.” (By the way, although we disagree with your beliefs, we are ready to sign somewhere in a collective letter for your right to express them.)

If any of the details stand out due to careful drawing or stronger pencil pressure (lines are noticeable on the back of the sheet), this signals your alarm.
Unfortunately, you can only give an explanation for why you drew something more thoroughly than anything else.
There can be any number of interpretations.
For example, in an animal, anxiety is localized in the legs. If you rely on the interpretation of the images of the collective unconscious, it turns out that you are not confident in yourself. But maybe you just walked a lot today. So we leave you alone to struggle with the interpretation of the riddle of why you tore through the paper while drawing a hump for a marsupial partridge.

Feet are another mirror of the soul. Drawn legs show self-confidence and thoughtful decisions. If the animal has no legs at all or they are very frail, this emphasizes the impulsiveness of the character of the artist and his frivolity. (NB! The powerful pedestal painted under the seemingly weak legs plays the role of the missing strong legs. After all, it is this pedestal that serves as a support for the figure.)

It is also important how the legs are connected to the body. As is this connection, so is your control over words and decisions. The legs are poorly or not at all attached to the body - you are not very careful about the accuracy of your words, you do not attach much importance to your own speeches. The legs are well attached to the body - your judgments are balanced and, at least for you, convincing.

Now study the shape of your legs. If both legs are the same (exactly repeated lines, size, bend), you are a conformist, and your creative solutions do not sparkle with novelty and invention. But if the lower limbs of your animal are different (one leg is raised for a kick, and your other animal is scratching the third), you are our person. You are independent in your judgments and generally have a creative nature. Hand, comrade!

By the way, if we are talking about creativity: people with clichéd thinking use ready-made templates (fish, pig, bird). A cow with wings is not original, it is just a formal connection of two blanks - a cow and a bird. And in general, this is not a non-existent animal, but an ordinary Skliss!
The more elements and the more unexpected their combinations, the higher your creative potential and vital energy in general.

If you drew a headless pendelpop, skip this step. But if your creation has any kind of face, you will have to analyze it.

Big head shows that the artist attaches special importance to erudition and, in general, to the rational principle both in himself and in those around him.

Prominent ears- a sign that it is important for you to know how others treat you. Plus, this is an indicator of your interest in the world, in the information that you draw from it.

Mouth. Open, and with a tongue, it screams about your talkativeness. The drawn lips convey sensuality (sorry if this sounds like a quote from an astrology manual). A toothy mouth is drawn by people prone to verbal aggression. Moreover, this aggression is often defensive in nature (you snap, scold everyone and everything). If the mouth in the picture is open, but neither the tongue, nor the teeth, nor the tari bird is visible there, there is an opinion that you are suspicious and always afraid of something.

Although the nose is a phallic symbol, in drawings of men it does not carry much additional information. But if you analyze a drawing of a girl in which the animal has a particularly long or overly drawn snout, feel free to assume that she is not sexually satisfied.

Eyes. An emphasis on the pupil (for example, strong shading) indicates that you are now in anxiety. You're clearly afraid of something. Did you draw eyelashes? Oh no no no! You attach too much importance to your appearance. It is generally not appropriate for men to draw eyelashes.

In the drawings made by girls, eyelashes in many cases signify a hysterical and demonstrative manner of behavior.
“This is the manipulation of other people’s feelings for one’s own purposes,” Ms. Sviridova translates the dark term into understandable language. Don't be so quick to gloat. Hysterical-demonstrative behavior is also found in men. We hope this is not your case, but if... In short, here's a gun - you know what to do with it. (A shot muffled by the door is heard, and then the sound of a falling body.)

Well, we've reached the top. Hair (mane, dreadlocks, bald patches) most often simply corresponds to the gender of the person drawing. Although in some cases, a distinctive hairstyle may indicate sexual orientation. Horns and other piercing growths indicate aggression. But whether it serves as protection from others or for attacking them, you yourself can say more precisely. A harmless feather or crest is interpreted as a desire to stand out.

Any non-functional, but purely decorative details that go beyond the boundaries of the drawn figure - such as lush feathers, tassels on tails and curls - indicate some unnatural behavior and a desire to attract attention.

We wouldn't be surprised if your car, tattooed on the back, has an airbrushed drawing of a tiger that was swallowed by a dragon.

The presence of seemingly extra, but still practical limbs(tentacles, spare legs, wings, proboscis) - an indicator that you want to cover (and maybe cover) many areas of activity at once. All these shoots are your many hobbies or simply your multi-tasking at work. Or it means the same thing, but with a minus sign: you often meddle in your own affairs, disturbing others with your know-it-all attitude.

The tail is what trails behind you. Your deeds, your intentions, your words. Here again the timeline will come in handy (if you go to the left, you will go back in time, etc.). Follow where the tail points. To the right - you have some important plans for the future, to the left - you are still remembering and analyzing past actions. To figure out whether your future or past deeds cause positive or negative feelings, pay attention to whether your tail is pointing up or down. The tail sticks out - you are either proud of something you have done, or you are looking forward to future victories. A fallen tail means fear of the future and regret about the past.

Among other things, the tail, who would doubt it, is a phallic symbol.
Therefore, the direction (up and down) may simply be a momentary indicator of your potency. Nothing, nothing, this happens to every man.

In rare cases, an inquisitive eye will discover inanimate parts in the body of an animal(wheels, batteries, propellers, USB inputs). Such additions appear either from a great mind (the draftsman uses all his imagination, trying to invent a non-existent animal), or, conversely, from a damaged mind - in patients with schizophrenia.

Those details that your animal does not have are also important.
No legs - you are not confident in yourself (see the meaning of the lower extremities). There are no hands or tentacles - you do not influence the world, but prefer to passively wait for something to happen.

Name

If you carefully read the task and gave your non-existent animal an unprecedented name, and did not just call it, as usual, Vitaly Sergeevich, you will probably find among these options a name somewhat similar to yours.

A rational combination of two or more semantic parts: elephant, creeping horse, dog eater. Shows practicality, rational thinking, strict adherence to the assigned task, and the desire to comply with norms.

Pseudo-scientific name: Latinomenius, Eastern European burdock goat eater. It shows that you are proud of your erudition and erudition. And in general, you don’t consider yourself a fool.

A meaningless set of sounds: vomit, hivoramira, vomit. Characteristic of a frivolous person who does not think about the consequences of his actions. In addition, such a kulyuvlya may emphasize that for the person who came up with this name, the aesthetic element is more important than the rational one.

Funny name: chuchuchka, popencia. An indicator of your ironic and condescending attitude towards the pitiful people around you.

Repetitive sounds: flu-flu, viz-viz, zhum-zhum. Infantility. Sorry, but we didn't come up with this.

Title too long: zelofukiropoestoral, colibarnofurucase. Typical for someone who likes to fantasize and have their head in the clouds.

Finishing touch

Now that you have found out all the ins and outs about yourself and are sitting over a drawing dripping with tears, try to take it out on your friends. Of course, practice is necessary to improve your skill.

“The more of your own drawings you analyze, the easier it will be to analyze the drawings of others,”- our expert promised, and then she spoke in the sense that you should beware of an unambiguous approach to the interpretation of fictional animals. All of the above is just the basics and cannot explain all the cheek pouches and tentacles. Trust your intuition. If you think the Hitler mustache on your girlfriend's drawing of the mountain penguin signifies her secret desire for a threesome, then it probably is.

From a drawing of a child or an adult, you can learn a lot about his emotional state, self-esteem, etc. (interestingly, through your own drawing, you can learn something about yourself). Through drawing there is a personal expression of inner experiences, something that is difficult to express in words. Even a drawing made involuntarily has its own content. By drawing something thoughtlessly on paper, we open the way for our subconscious. It seems to guide our hand.

Freud believed that automatic drawing, while the consciousness is occupied with something else, is a kind of “window” through which one can see a fragment of the subconscious. To understand what it conveys, we must know the character code. It is, of course, specific to each person. However, there are some general rules thanks to which we can read the secrets of our interlocutors and our own.

According to the results of research by psychologist J. Goodman, 65% of people during a conversation draw flowers, people, circles, spirals or squares.

So, what do these unconscious symbols say about us?

When interpreting, attention is paid to the location of the drawing on the sheet.

For example, a drawing located in the lower left corner suggests a focus on one’s own person, a desire to return to an earlier stage of life, which seems to be happier.
At the bottom right, means lack of self-confidence.
At the top of the sheet is about enthusiasm, high self-esteem.
A downward shift in the pattern indicates fatigue, neuroses, and depression.
The drawing in the center of the sheet is most likely the work of an extrovert, a person who needs space and attention from others.

Some symbols can also be interpreted as follows:

A person who is open, joyful, and happy with his current situation creates clear, separate forms. Each element of the picture has its place.
A string of repeating figures means that a person is puzzled by some problems from the past.
Round shapes indicate friendly feelings, a positive attitude towards everything that happens.
Angular figures are drawn by people who have their own opinions and who do not like subordination to others.
Geometric figures are drawn by sensible faces who will think carefully before doing anything. However, spirals and circles that extend from the center to the edges signal hidden plans. And the image of sharp corners symbolizes aggression, hidden complexes and feelings of inferiority.
Smiley faces and people indicate a person full of humor, who thinks positively and knows how to joke about themselves.
Faces are drawn by people who are focused on themselves, but at the same time sensitive; they are easy to offend.
Idealists often draw stars.
Arrows can indicate sexual tension. However, upward ones can be a sign of ambition.
You should also pay attention to the technique of drawing.
Weak, thin lines indicate the same human performance. And vice versa - the greater the pressure, the more energy the author of the drawing has.

Psychology studies human nature and can explain various forms of human behavior. Such an opportunity as the study of characteristic personality traits using drawings has grown into a whole technique. Research tests are suitable for both children and adults. The techniques are extremely simple and do not require special preparation. The results are striking in their accuracy. What are the most common psychological tests for unconscious drawings?

Drawing test “Draw a house”

The test task is easy to understand based on the name of the psychological test. It is also not difficult to interpret the results from the drawings; human psychology is structured in such a way that without meaning to, he will talk about his inner world.

This drawing test can act as an independent study, or it can become the key to other tasks in which a person depicts a house.

Drawing test “Choose a figure”

The sheet shows square, triangle, rectangle, circle and zigzag. A person is asked to first choose one figure that he associates with himself, and then arrange the remaining elements in order of personal preference. The psychological response consists of two components: the figure chosen first characterizes the dominant personality traits, the remaining details complement the image.

Incorrigible workaholics put first place square. Such people always finish what they start with perseverance and diligence; they have excellent memory and a sense of responsibility. Idealists do not lose sight of any details and like to “put everything on the shelf.” Undoubtedly, such qualities are useful at work, but they are very annoying in their personal life. Family happiness is guaranteed if you manage to find a soul mate with the same character.

Triangle They are chosen by true leaders who are strong, courageous, energetic, self-confident, able to soberly assess the situation and sensibly analyze what is happening. In all spheres of life, these people reserve the right to a decisive vote, do not change their decisions and do not know how to admit their own mistakes. All life is spent in competition and struggle for first place.

Personalities - " rectangles“are in a state of constant change. They are inconsistent and unpredictable, always dissatisfied with something and always looking for something better. Naivety and curiosity generate not only a keen interest in everything unknown, but also incredible courage. Therefore, such people are rarely alone.

Selected circle always strive for harmony. Through the efforts of these philanthropists, a friendly atmosphere in the work team and a favorable atmosphere in the family union are maintained. They know how to listen and support, are very sensitive and insightful. Psychology can become their life's work.

Open zigzag- preference for creative creative people. They are often expressive and eccentric, almost always naive and impractical. Excellent intuition, a subtle sense of humor and the ability to find a common language with everyone compensate for shortcomings.

Drawing test “What do the doodles hide?”

Involuntary tracing of a pen on a piece of paper can tell a lot about a person's character.

This psychological test is considered one of the most truthful. After all, the information that a person gives out unconsciously is considered the most true. All secret thoughts, hidden experiences, unjustified hopes are projected onto paper.

Drawing test “Secrets of the inner world”

A very interesting and easy-to-perform psychological test that can ultimately provide significant answers to many life questions. To conduct this you will need a pen (or pencil), a blank piece of paper and a few minutes of free time.

First you need to divide the sheet into four equal parts. In the upper left sector you need to draw a dot, in the upper right sector - a rectangle, in the lower left part the “=” sign is drawn, and the lower right part remains empty. Now you need to discard all extraneous thoughts, calm down and start performing the test. To do this, you need to finish drawing in the first three fields everything that first comes to mind. You shouldn’t waste effort on masterpiece paintings, even if it takes no more than 15 seconds to create one image. And in the last square you should draw a boat floating on the waves. That's all, you can start decoding.

Answers to the psychological test “Secrets of the inner world”

Top left picture talks about interaction with the outside world. If more dots or other small scattered details were added, then we are talking about a sociable, open personality. And spirals, circles, ovals indicate a closed, alienated person.
Top right picture reveals the inner self. Selfish people try to reduce the area of contact between the drawing and the rectangle or even draw elements away from the figure. Good-natured, sociable people associate their image with the one proposed. Most often this is a wall, a parallelepiped, or a brick. Altruists tend to draw a picture of the house.
Third drawing responsible for relationships with the opposite sex. The fewer details and the further they are from the lines, the easier and simpler the thread of communication is built. Unconfident individuals draw piled-up pyramids of various symbols and signs.
Last drawing- this is Love. Romantics add a lot of unnecessary details: sails, stars, clouds, oars, people, animals. Practical natures with a strong character and alien to sentimentality depict a simplified scheme without any frills or intricacies. Passionate dreamers rushing headlong into feelings will undoubtedly draw a stormy sea, on the waves of which the boat of love rocks.

Everyone wants to look at themselves from the outside, to evaluate the psychology of the inner world from a different angle. You can determine a psychological portrait using drawings. A person will spontaneously put on paper all his personality traits, even those that are difficult to admit to himself.

The scribbles we unknowingly scribble during a telephone conversation or a long face-to-face meeting can reveal many of the artist's hidden motives. A carelessly drawn drawing, a word or a line outlined dozens of times is of great importance, because they are determined by our subconscious. What do the careless pen strokes that we so often create mean?

Figures of people

If you can clearly see human figures among the author’s scribbles and drawings, he probably feels insecure and helpless. Thus, the subconscious gives out attempts to escape from responsibilities. Simple straight lines, outlined repeatedly, indicate the author's emotional instability. This person longs to isolate himself from other people, and conversation is very difficult for him.

Eyes

Drawings depicting eyes reveal the inner essence of a person. If the eyes depicted on paper by the author are wide open, this indicates his openness. Squinting means observation, and closed eyes symbolize refusing the opportunity to look into your soul.

Signature

A person who, when talking with an interlocutor, writes his own signature on a piece of paper is unusually selfish, narcissistic and arrogant. If you sign an autograph without hesitation at the most crucial moment, subconsciously in solving the problem you intend to pull the blanket over yourself.

Circles and rings

Any circles connected together or placed within each other indicate the need to seek unity. On a subconscious level, the author feels that he desperately needs a new friend or increased attention from others.

Animals

Doodles and drawings that depict animals tell a lot about the current emotional component of a person. Tigers and wolves indicate hidden anger, foxes indicate cunning plans. The image of cats and squirrels characterizes the search for care and protection, lions indicate the arrogance of the author. In any case, a person tends to associate himself with a drawn animal, drawing parallels with its characteristic features.

Spirals and wavy lines

A person who carelessly draws spirals and wavy lines on paper during a conversation is in fact little concerned about the problems of those around him. If such a person is threatened with an emotional crisis, it will be associated with her own person. The author attaches too much importance to small details in life. If you recognize yourself in this person, try to keep your emotions under control. Sometimes you are unreasonably aggressive with others.

Geometric figures
