In this monograph, we review the current state of the literature concerning the psychometric properties (norms, reliability, validity, incremental validity, treatment utility) of three major projective instruments: Rorschach Inkblot Test, Thematic Apperception Test (TAT), and human figure drawings.

In this chapter, we argue that when selecting psychological tests to be administered in an evaluation, psychologists must employ, not set aside, their knowledge of psychometrics: unreliable projective techniques should be eliminated from consideration.

Psychological testing also called psychological assessment is the foundation of how psychologists better understand a person and their behavior. It is a process of problem solving for many professionals to try and determine the core components of a persons psychological or mental health problems, personality, IQ, or some other component. It is a...
Psychological testing measures an individuals performance at a specific point in time right now. Psychologists talk about a persons present functioning in terms of their test data. Therefore psychological tests cant predict future or innate potential.
Psychological testing is not a single test or even a single type of test. It encompasses a whole body of dozens of research-backed tests and procedures of assessing specific aspects of a persons psychological makeup. Some tests are used to determine IQ, others are used for personality, and still others for something else. Since so many different te...
Psychological assessment is something thats typically done in a formal manner only by a licensed psychologist (the actual testing may sometimes be administered by a psychology intern or trainee studying to become a psychologist). Depending upon what kind of testing is being done, it can last anywhere from 1 1/2 hours to a full day. Testing is usual...
The clinical interview is a core component of any psychological testing. Some people know the clinical interview as an intake interview, admission interview or diagnostic interview (although technically these are often very different things). Clinical interviews typically last from 1 to 2 hours in length, and occur most often in a clinicians office...
The clinical interview is an opportunity for the professional to gather important background and family data about the person. Think of it as an information-gathering session for the professionals benefit (but ultimately for your benefit). You may have to recall or review a lot of your life and personal history with the professional, who will often...
Before any formal psychological testing is done, a clinical interview is nearly always conducted (even if the person has already gone through one with a different professional). Psychologists conducting the testing will often want to form their own clinical impressions, which can be best done through a direct interview with the person.
The most commonly administered IQ test is called the Wechsler Adult Intelligence ScaleFourth Edition (WAIS-IV). It generally takes anywhere from an hour to an hour and a half to administer, and is appropriate for any individual aged 16 or older to take. (Children can be administered an IQ test especially designed for them called the Wechsler Intell...
The WAIS-IV is divided into four major scales to arrive at whats called a full scale IQ. Each scale is further divided into a number of mandatory and optional (also called supplemental) subtests. The mandatory subtests are necessary to arrive at a persons full scale IQ. The supplemental subtests provide additional, valuable information about a pers...
Psychological testing has been an integral part of the history of clinical psychology and plays an increasingly important role in the lives of individuals in our society (Dahlstrom, 1985; Klopfer, 1983). Within medical settings, psychological testing has grown...

Jan 1, 2018 · The main purpose of projective testing is to assess personality functioning. Each projective test includes some type of unstructured stimulus materials, such as inkblots, pictures of people in social situations, or a blank piece of paper.
Current evidence on each of three projective instruments—the Rorschach, Thematic Apperception Test, and figure drawings—is reviewed.
