Discuss how a real psychiatric measure but models the Rorschach Inkblot test, a standardized projective measure that you learned about previously.

This is a brief exercise to help you to understand how projective tests work. and how it might be used to assess for psychiatric conditions. This IS NOT a real psychiatric measure but models the Rorschach Inkblot test, a standardized projective measure that you learned about previously. There are three sample images available for your use. Please administer two of the images to someone in your family, You may also administer it to a friend(s). These can be done in person or virtually if using technology if you are able to (such as Zoom or FaceTime). You should be sure to print out a copy of the image so you can hold it up to a screen. You can also take a picture and share. Please administer as follows: 1. Show the image 2. Ask your friend/family to look at the image and ask “Please tell me what you see in this image.” 3. Write down what they describe and ask them “What makes it look like …..(whatever they described)”? 4. Then write 1 – 2 paragraphs indicating: a) How it felt administering this test; b) Whether you think that this is a useful tool in assessing someone’s inner emotional life; and c) Whether you think it can help provide diagnostic information for someone with schizophrenia or other psychotic disorder. (In other words, would this measure be useful or more problematic for someone with a more serious mental illness such as schizophrenia) Please remember that this is intended only as an exercise and you should not attempt to use this in a real way to make any kind of diagnosis.
