Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The fact that the Rorschach inkblot test diagnoses many normal adults as disordered suggests that it has low validity. Validity refers to the degree to which a test accurately measures what it is intended to measure. If the test is diagnosing people as disordered who are not actually disordered, then its validity is questionable. The other options (consensus, interpretive value, genuineness) are not directly related to this issue.
