X-%

Aliases

• X-%
• Distorted Form

Definition

X-% indicates the proportion of responses with clearly distorted form use. In mediation, it functions as a central sign of perceptual distance from shared reality.

Interpretation

• If X-% rises, the frequency of perceptions that do not fit the blot well increases.
• If Xu% is also high, there may be a mixture of tolerable oddness and genuine distortion.
• If X-% is high together with WSum6 or PTI, clinical concern increases.

Cautions

• X-% is not the same as Xu%; Xu% still reflects an uncommon but possible reading.
• It should be reviewed together with total responses and the broader distribution of FQ-.
• A high value is informative, but it does not by itself explain the source of distortion.
