The paper introduces the Pictorial Assessment of Interpersonal Relationship (PAIR) developed by Bombi et al. (Bombi, Pinto, Cannoni, 2007). The research instrument can be applied to children from 6–14 years old to analyze and compare drawings of interpersonal relationships along 6 main scales (Cohesion, Distancing, Similarity, Value, Emotions, Conflict). Rejecting the symbolic perspective and clinical approach the method considers drawings as communicative tools, which can be used to reveal the children’s understanding of social world, social phenomena and social emotions. PAIR can be reliably applied to detect how children understand interpersonal phenomena in general (e.g. friendship, competition, cooperation), social status (e.g. poor-rich), how they discriminate among different categories of relationships (e.g. siblinghood-friendship, winner-loser) and how they represent relationships under special circumstances (siblings in harmony- in conflict). The method can help to interpret social relationships and interaction-generated emotions pictured by children in a mutual framework. The research instrument has an objective, elaborated analytic system to examine the dyadic interpersonal relationships (two entire figures). Moreover contrary to the projective tests PAIR can be reliably used to investigate children’s social knowledge in the field of developmental social psychology. The aim of the present paper is to introduce this analytic system as a useful research method of drawings in scientific research.
