Question

Diandra Alya Putri · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : C, Explanation :  Projective tests are designed to assess personality by presenting individuals with an ambiguous stimulus, such as an inkblot or a picture, and asking them to interpret or tell a story about it. The test-taker's responses are thought to reveal unconscious aspects of their personality and underlying conflicts or needs. Self-report questionnaires ask individuals to directly report on their own thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, while psychophysiological measures assess physiological responses to stimuli. Empirically keyed tests use items that have been identified through empirical research as predictive of a particular trait or behavior.
