Art therapists and other professionals use art-based assessments to evaluate emotional, cognitive, and developmental conditions. There are also many psychological assessments that utilize artmaking to analyze various types of mental functioning Betts, Art therapists and other professionals are educated to administer and interpret these assessments, most of which rely on simple directives and a standardized array of art materials Malchiodi , ; Betts, Notwithstanding, many art therapists eschew diagnostic testing and indeed some writers Hogan question the validity of therapists making interpretative assumptions.
Below are some examples of art therapy assessments:. In this assessment, a person is asked to select a card from a deck with different mandalas designs enclosed in a geometric shape and then must choose a color from a set of colored cards. The person is then asked to draw the mandala from the card they choose with an oil pastel of the color of their choice. The artist is then asked to explain if there were any meanings, experiences, or related information related to the mandala they drew. This test is based on the beliefs of Joan Kellogg, who sees a recurring correlation between the images, pattern and shapes in the mandalas that people draw and the personalities of the artists.
This test assesses and gives clues to a person's psychological progressions and their current psychological condition Malchiodi The mandala originates in Buddhism ; its connections with spirituality help us to see links with transpersonal art.

He suggested artistic work to his fellow patients. That began his art therapy work, which was documented in in his book, Art Versus Illness. Other early proponents of art therapy in Britain include E. The British Association of Art Therapists was founded in Naumburg, an educator, asserted that "art therapy is psychoanalytically oriented" and that free art expression "becomes a form of symbolic speech which…leads to an increase in verbalization in the course of therapy.

Diverse perspectives exist on history of art therapy, which complement those that focus on the institutionalization of art therapy as a profession in Britain and the United States. The relation between the fields of art therapy and outsider art has been widely debated. The term 'art brut' was first coined by French artist Jean Dubuffet to describe art created outside the boundaries of official culture. Dubuffet used the term 'art brut' to focus on artistic practice by insane-asylum patients.
