Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Interviews try to directly identify overt, observable traits through questioning and observation. Projective tests, on the other hand, ask participants to respond to ambiguous stimuli in order to uncover deeply hidden or unconscious wishes, thoughts, and needs. Rating scales and inventories are methods of measurement that can be used in both situations, but do not inherently seek to uncover hidden or unconscious aspects of the individual being assessed.
