[Coding/Location] W

[Coding/Location] W

Aliases

• W
• whole blot response
• global location

Definition

W is used when the response uses the whole blot. It is not enough for the response to sound global; the whole blot must actually be used.

Conditions

• The response includes all parts of the blot.
• No relevant blot sections are left out in constructing the object.
• The location is confirmed in inquiry or on the location sheet.

Cautions

• A response commonly given to the whole blot should not receive W if the person leaves out important blot areas.
• If the whole blot is used together with white space, code scoring-input/location/WS.
• W does not by itself mean good organization or good form quality.
