"Which of the following is NOT a projective test?"

ASociometry

BWord association test

CSentence completion test

DInk blot test

Answer:

A. Sociometry

Read Explanation:

  • Sociometry: Developed by Jacob L. Moreno, sociometry is a quantitative method used to measure social relationships, peer acceptance, and group dynamics (e.g., asking students to name their best friends in class). It assesses overt social choices rather than unconscious thoughts.

  • Projective Tests: These tests present ambiguous or unstructured stimuli to evaluate a person's underlying, subconscious personality traits, motives, and emotions:

    • Word Association Test: Responding to a word with the first word that comes to mind (Jung/Galton).

    • Sentence Completion Test: Completing unfinished sentence stems to reveal attitudes and feelings (Rotter).

    • Ink Blot Test: Interpreting ambiguous inkblots to uncover unconscious drives (Rorschach).
