This paper presents a new method for the determination of the volume, surface area and depth of skin defects. The method is based on the description of a spatial defect using a pyramid (made, for example, from injection needles), which is placed over the defect. The projection of the pyramid on to the defect is photographed using a digital camera and subsequently compared with the projection of the same pyramid on to a sheet of grid paper. The defect is mathematically reconstructed on a computer, and an optimal body shape describing the defect is found, using a number of simplifications and assumptions. The method was then validated using a plaster mold of a real foot with 19 defects simulating real wounds. These plaster wounds were molded using alginate hydrocolloid, and the volume, surface area and depth were measured and compared with the results of the pyramid projection by means of regression analysis. This method correlates in all variables with correlation coefficients higher than 0.9. It can be concluded that the projection pyramid method correlates well with the reference mold method and can be used with good results for a whole range of variables., J. Růžička, P. Nový, F.

Scénotest je podnětnou projektivní metodou, která je využitelná v praxi diagnostické i terapeutické. Díky návratu této metody do českého psychodiagnostického prostředí vzniklo již několik prací, které se Scénotestu cíleně věnují. V tomto článku (a v online přílohách1) by měly být shrnuty alespoň základní dostupné informace o této metodě, která byla a je výsostnou metodou v rámci rakouské, německé či švýcarské psychologické vývojové diagnostiky a dětské psychoterapeutické praxe. Článek se zaměřuje především na hledisko formální analýzy Scénotestu a pokouší se poskytnout prakticky i výzkumně využitelné informace o této metodě. and The Scenotest is an inspirative projective technique which can be used in
psychotherapy and also in assessment (mainly in personality and social/relationship assessment in childhood). The article is aimed at summarizing basic information about this method – partly from literature (Ermert, 1997; Staabs, 2001 etc.), partly from the author’s research and work experience. The article describes the method, main functions of the Scenotest, possible ways of stage analysis, stage building processes, and provides a detailed description of formal and content analysis parameters or proceedings.
