D. W. Winnecott devised a short, simple test which he used to evaluate normal infants. In this study, we compared 9-month-old infants' behaviors elicited during the Winnecott Test (WSS), both with historical data and with their behavior during a structured separation from their mothers. We found significant correlations between the WSS, the structured separation, and historical data. This simple test can provide the practitioner with invaluable information regarding the infant, his temperamental style, and his relationship with others.
