Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Projective tests are designed to reveal aspects of the test taker's personality by presenting ambiguous stimuli and allowing the individual to project their unconscious desires and conflicts onto the stimuli. Identification tests are not a common classification of personality tests, while psychoanalytic and dynamic tests may incorporate projective techniques but are not specific categories of tests.
