Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An empirically keyed test is created by identifying two groups that are known to be different and then selecting items that distinguish them. This type of self-report test is often used in personality assessment and can help identify patterns of behavior, thoughts, and emotions that may be unique to certain groups of people. The Thematic Apperception Test and Rorschach inkblot test are not based on empirical research and are more subjective in nature. A "personology inventory" is not a commonly used term in psychology, and it is not clear what this would refer to.
