--Projective tests ask examinees to interpret or make sense of ambiguous stimuli such as inkblots,drawings of social situations,or incomplete sentences.If you've ever looked for shapes in clouds in the sky,you have a sense of what it's like to take a projective test.Influenced by psychoanalytic views of personality (Westen,Feit,& Zittel,1999),especially Freud's notion of projection,these techniques rest on a crucial premise: the projective hypothesis (Frank,1948).This hypothesis assumes that in the process of interpreting ambiguous stimuli,people inevitably project aspects of their personality onto these stimuli.Test interpreters can then work in reverse by examining people's answers for clues concerning their personality traits.In contrast to structured personality measures,projective techniques permit respondents considerable latitude in their answers.
--Rorschach Inkblot Test: What might this be? The best-known projective measure is the Rorschach Inkblot Test,developed by Swiss psychiatrist Hermann Rorschach in the early 1920s.The Rorschach,as it's commonly known,consists of ten symmetrical inkblots,five in black and white and five containing colour (see Figure 14.6).The Rorschach is one of the most commonly used of all personality measures (Watkins et al. ,1995)
