Are you InSaNe?!! Rorschach Test - AKA: Inkblot
Some of you may be aware that the Rorschach Test is used in Psychology.
These images found in the early 1920's have been sheltered from the public for the reason of retaining a true and genuine response from the test taker. These responses are then scored by the examiner to better assist the Psychologist in determining one's mental health or lead the examiner to further test for other disorders.
As some of you may have been reading, hearing or watching on the news a doctor has uploaded ALL of the Rorschach Plates (the images are known as Plates) to Wikipedia with the corresponding common answers after more than a half century of research.
This brings to light the most common answers that have been researched in geniuses, murders, anxiety and depression to name a few.
No matter how controversial these images and their corresponding outcomes to the patients or test takers they have always been hidden from public eye. Now doctors want the images removed from Wikipedia and are beginning to take legal action to have them removed for the sake of trying not to have skewed test results from test takers (patients).
Meaning, if one knew that if all you had to do was say the nice things versus what was genuinely in your mind then the test would be skewed thus the Psychological test would be useless.
Please note, there are many variations of how an examiner will determine results and not many doctors have the same scores even with the same patient. Some professionals go as far as using a lie detector to better determine if the patient is telling the genuine truth with each corresponding answer.
Also, I have read information the indicates these Plates have been uploaded to the internet before but it is my understanding they have not released the corresponding data that has been analyzed for decades.
DISCUSS....
