Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
The Thematic Apperception Test is a projective personality test that involves showing a series of ambiguous pictures to a person and asking them to create a story about each one. The purpose is to reveal unconscious thoughts, motivations, and attitudes. The other options listed are not projective personality tests, but rather cognitive ability tests (Stanford-Binet) or self-report personality inventories (MMPI) or a framing exercise (Bell and Howell).
