Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Projective techniques involve presenting individuals with ambiguous stimuli and asking them to interpret or make sense of these stimuli. This approach is based on the idea that people project their own personalities, including desires, fears, and needs, onto the ambiguous stimuli. These techniques are relatively unstructured, allowing for a wide range of responses, which is why option B is correct. They are not limited to administration by psychiatrists or social workers, nor are they modified forced-choice techniques or focused on superficial aspects of personality.
