Theorists have devised many ways to assess personality.
Theorists have devised many ways to assess personality. The Thematic Apperception Test (TAT) is one of them. You will learn more about this test in the next module. For a little background, the TAT was designed to be a projective test where subjects are provided with intentionally vague or ambiguous images that require the use of the imagination to tell a story.
In this module, you will look at an image and tell the story of what you think is happening and take a mock TAT. There is no right or wrong answer. In the next module, we will use a psychoanalytic perspective to review your responses to the questions below from the psychoanalytic lens.
