Advanced Projective Assessment

Catalog description

Projective techniques constitute an important component of the Clinical Psychologist repertoire of diagnostic tests. The Rorschach Inkblot Test is one of a wide array of projective assessment procedures available used to evaluate the subject’s personality dynamics. Personality may be defined as the characteristic way in which a person views the world, relate to others, solves problems, regulates emotions, manages stress and copes with life challenges (Davis, 2001). This course will focus on the Rorschach Inkblot Test as a perceptual-cognitive, problem-solving task. The main objective of the course is to provide the student with basic knowledge for the application of the most recent Rorschach Performance Assessment System.
