    • Thematic Apperception Test (TAT): Projective test; patients view pictures and create stories, revealing unconscious themes through thoughts, feelings, and interpretations.
    • Sentence Completion Test: Projective test, open-ended form; individual completes incomplete sentences, revealing aspects of personality
