Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
The Thematic Apperception Test (TAT) asks the subject to tell a story based on a picture of one or more people in which it is unclear what is going on. The responses are analyzed for themes and patterns that can provide insight into the subject's personality and inner thoughts. The Rorschach test involves showing the subject a series of inkblots and asking them to describe what they see, while the CPI and MMPI are self-report questionnaires that assess various aspects of personality.
