C
I disagree.
If you don't know the right answer, try to eliminate wrong alternatives.
Which alternative has a person doing something?
To determine the correct answer, you can break down the options and what they involve:
A. The Thematic Apperception Test (TAT): This test is a projective psychological test where individuals are asked to interpret ambiguous pictures. It does not involve observing a person's behavior under controlled circumstances.
B. Behavioral assessment: This option involves observing a person's behavior under carefully controlled circumstances. It includes methods such as structured observations, self-monitoring, and biofeedback.
C. Rorschach methods: The Rorschach test involves showing individuals a series of inkblot images and interpreting their responses. While it can provide insights into a person's thought process, it does not involve observing their behavior under controlled circumstances.
D. The MMPI-2 (Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2): This is a widely used psychological test that assesses personality traits and psychological disorders. It does not involve observing a person's behavior under controlled circumstances.
Based on this analysis, the correct answer is B. Behavioral assessment, as it focuses on observing a person's behavior under carefully controlled circumstances.
