What is the Rorschach test?

Rorschach's test is a psychological examination in which the subject is asked to see a number of ten inkblots and then discuss the pictures he perceives. The test, which was originally developed by Hermann Rorschach in 1921, includes today's evaluation methods that have been improved by the original version. Rorschach's test is used to assess personality characteristics, thought formulas and emotional function and to detect possible psychotic thinking.

Rorschach test consists of ten standard inkblots on white paper. Five is made only by black ink, two are black and red and three are multicolored. The test entity is displayed every Inkblot and asked what they see in it. Then the test entity is given every Inkblot to explore and explain why and how the image looks like what he saw. The evaluation methods focus more on this explanation and the subject of the subject of the subject than the content of its interpretation. Mathematical formulas are then applied to data to create a SHRforces the results. Skeptics of the Rorschach test believe that this approach is deceptively objective, while in fact, the interviewer's distortion can never miss the test results.

Recently, controversy has appeared on the Internet through the pictures of the Rorschach test. In order to buy an inkjet card set, a person must have evidence of a doctorate in psychology. This is because the test is only effective if the images are brand new to the subject. Because the body of work compiled on the Rorschach test from its Deals development with the original ten pictures, such as creating new pictures for each test, would not solve the problem. While Rorschach's test images are now a public sphere and are therefore not illegal for reproduction, psychologists and others believe that making pictures available is unethical.
