Psychological technique evaluates the psyche tests. In this technique
inferences are drawn. It is based on projection of thought process that
too expressively, adequately, consistently and logically.
TAT →→ →→ What ? Why ? and How ?
TAT requires a ‘thema’/story. Story requires a hero. Hero must face the challenges/risk but should
not fail. Depending on the situational crisis hero may face the failure for time being but finally he
should succeed.
No courage without challenge/risk, no motivation without failure.
Failure determines your determination who should be a hero, how hero should be introduced in a
story. What is shown, is one portion of the event, that can be the part of the scene. It is not the whole,
but it may be the part of the whole. The obvious is never 100% in TAT. Obvious means whatever is
shown on the screen. Here your imagination comes and it strengthens you an opportunity for its
exploration and simultaneously for its span and depth. The TAT spells your social factor and your
social factor is never directly measured. Social adjustment means your ability to adjust globally with
every kind of people.
There should be a match between you and your hero, because hero is your alter ego, your deployed commander
who should represent you 100%. There may exist a minimum distance between you and your hero. There may be
a difference of perception, emotions and ability but not in the achievement. There should be a similarity between
age, sex and character.
