evaluation and assessment of personality
traits: 1.Observational methods (The

1. One of the most commonly used personality tests
is the MMPI. This test asks for answers of “True”,
“False” or “Cannot” to 566 statements about
different personality traits such as attitudes,
emotional reactions, physical and psychological
symptoms and past experiences.
2. Projective tests focus upon what is inside a
person rather than what can be seen in a person’s
behaviour. These tests try to find out more about a
person’s feelings, unconscious desires and inner
thoughts. These tests make use of people’s
tendencies to make up stories about things they
see. When shown an inkblot, for example, people
see butterflies, dancing girls, pictures of skeletons,
or many other images
This is the most common written method
of assessing personality. A personality
interview is a questionnaire in which the
person reports his or her feeling in certain
situations. They are very easily checked
and scored

The Rorschach inkblot test was the first
projective test and is still widely used. It
was developed by the Swiss psychologist
Hermann Rorschach in 1920. Another
projective test is the Thematic apperception
test (TAT) developed by Henry Murray of
Havard University in 1938. The Rorschach
test uses ten different kinds of inkblots
which must be described by the person
taking the test. Projective tests are often
used in clinical practice. They are helpful in
showing a person’s inner areas of conflict,
anxieties or any problems in relationships
because the person is free to describe
anything
