TATの分析・解釈について

Abstract

The Thematic Apperception Test (TAT) is a psychological test whereby a subject is asked to tell a story on cards. No standard methods are available to analyze and interpret the test results. To standardize such methods would not be proper because the subject has to connect a series of ideas into a logical sequence. Understanding the psychology of the subject is important so as to analyze and interpret the results of the TAT. The senses behind the story must be understood to appreciate the sequence of ideas. For the analysis and interpretation of the results to be objective and understandable, it is necessary to describe the processes of the analysis and interpretation as accurately as possible.
