Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Tree-drawing test, in which patients draw a picture of tree with nuts, has often been used in psychosomatic internal medicine as a conventional psychological test, and this test is useful to examine their mental state. We analyzed their pictures by an image processing method, and calculated the characteristic quantities. We also examined their depression scale and found the relationship between those indices and depression scale using multiple regression analysis. We compared the calculated data with clinical data, and this method has improved the reliability of mental test.
