The area of interest is the Rorschach inkblot test. After
taking the test myself I can vouch that I don’t think that the test is a good
way to evaluate someone. For me I couldn’t see anything in the one pain. I
guess some psychologist somewhere would give me a mental answer. At one time
the ink blot test was the most widely projective test used. Then again that
time was in the 1960’s.For me I don’t believe that one person can look at a
picture (inkblots) and another person can analysis that person. We are all
different something may look different to one person than the other. It would
be different if it was just a straight forward picture, but it is just blots.
The test is basically your word against the psychologist’s word. Yes, this test
has been in use for many years, but I can’t believe that with the technology
that we have today that we can’t find a better and more effective way the
analysis a person’s mind to see what they are thinking. I think that in time we
will be using computers more and more to get a better understanding of why
people are wired the way that they are.
