The Thematic Apperception Test (TAT) is a method developed by McClelland to assess a person's dominant needs or motives. It involves showing an ambiguous image and having the subject write a story about it, which is then analyzed for recurring themes or patterns related to the subject's psychological needs. The other options mentioned (ERG Theory, Two-Factor Theory, and Acquired-Needs Theory) are theories of motivation developed by different researchers, but they do not involve using the TAT method.
