In this assignment, you will compare projective and objective methods of personality assessment. Research a minimum of three peer-reviewed articles that were published within the last 15 years on these techniques. In your paper, you will provide an evaluation of these techniques organized according to the outline provided below. Use information from your researched peer-reviewed articles and required sources to support your work in each section.
Section 1: Objective Personality Assessment
· Define the term objective in objective methods of personality assessment.
· Summarize the features of objective methods of personality assessment, and provide at least three examples of these types of measures.
· Explain the assumptions on which objective methods are based, and provide an analysis of empirical research testing the validity of the assumptions you identified.
· Appraise the research exploring the technical adequacy (i.e., reliability and validity) of objective tests.
· Describe the impact of social and culture variability on the administration and interpretation of objective tests.
Section 2: Projective Personality Assessment
· Define the term projective in projective methods of personality assessment.
· Summarize the features of projective methods of personality assessment, and provide at least three examples of these types of measures.
· Explain the assumptions on which projective methods are based, and provide an analysis of empirical research testing the validity of the assumptions you identified.
· Appraise the research exploring the technical adequacy (i.e., reliability and validity) of projective tests.
· Describe the impact of social and culture variability on the administration and interpretation of projective tests.
Section 3: Synthesis, Conclusions, and Recommendations
· Write a brief one-paragraph scenario for a fictitious client. Include the following information: presenting concerns (reason for referral), age, gender, ethnicity, language(s), and any other significant information (e.g., military status, health issues, marital status, sexual orientation, etc.).
· Debate the arguments supporting and opposing the use of projective and objective personality assessments with your identified client.
· Select a minimum of one objective and one projective measure to use with your client. Compare the use of the selected projective and objective personality measures with your identified client.
· Analyze the advantages and limitations of each assessment measure you selected.
· Compose recommendations to improve the validity of personality assessment.
The Evaluation of Objective and Projective Measures of Personality
· Must be four to six double-spaced pages in length (not including title and references pages) and formatted according to APA
· Must use at least three peer-reviewed sources published within the last 15 years in addition to the course text.
· Must document all sources in APA
· Must include a separate references page that is formatted according to APA style
