Definition

W:D:Dd shows the proportion of whole responses, common detail responses, and unusual detail responses. In processing, it is used to see whether the person tends to take in the whole field, focus on common parts, or move toward smaller details.

Interpretation

• A predominance of W suggests more interest in the whole or in broader configurations.
• Greater weight on D is usually seen as a more practical and economical style.
• An increase in Dd can indicate finer, more particular, or more scattered attention to small details.
• Reading it with W:M helps compare perceptual scope with level of organizational ambition.

Cautions

• No single distribution is pathological by itself.
• The value also depends on total responses and the protocol's broader style.
• A high Dd should not automatically be confused with obsessiveness or impairment.
