* Projective tests: * “Throw” your thoughts out * Open-ended questions * Give own interpretation of pictures, diagrams, objects * The answers given state something about the person’s needs, wishes, fears, and personality * own spin on the task presented that projects their thoughts onto the task * Ex.

* Did we figure anything out about the personality description I gave you guys?

* How can it be that most of you agreed to the assessment of your personality?

* Barnum principle- INTENTIONALLY naming general, vague, not specific, personality traits * Seemingly accurate, but fraudulent descriptions of personality * Apply to mostly everyone * A number of common concerns, traits, conflicts, interests and motives * Easy to agree with vague statements!

* What is validity?

* How are these types of tests that ask you to pick out your own qualities valid? * Or are they NOT valid?

* How ethical was I as a teacher giving out a fake personality test? Psychologists respect the dignity and worth of the individual and strive for the preservation and protection of fundamental human rights. They are committed to increasing knowledge of human behavior and of people's understanding of themselves and others and to the utilization of such knowledge for the promotion of human welfare. While pursuing these objectives, they make every effort to protect the welfare of those who seek their services and of the research participants that may be the objects of study. (p.633)

* An instructor of any kind is considered an authority, * the proper role of the student is to believe the teachings of the instructor or the authority figure * ex. astrologer You must do your best to evaluate critically the claims of individuals claiming expertise!
