THEMATIC APPERCEPTION TEST (TAT)

                                  Picture 6 - Story 2:
           The  image  is  the  background  flex  of  an  event  organized  by  the  Madhya
           Pradesh State police in a colony of Indore in March 2017. In the wake of
                                                       arising   casualties   and
                                                       damage  to  property  by
                                                       accidents  caused  by  Gas
                                                       cylinders,  the  Madhya
                                                       Pradesh State government
                    © SSBCRACK                         decided  to  carry  out  a
                                                       phased  training  program
                                                       across  all  the  districts  to
                                                       train     civilians   on
                                                       sabotaging  a  cylinder  in
                                                       leak  that  catches  fire  and
                                                       the kind of response to it.
                                                       The solution lied to gauge
           the intensity of the flame and act accordingly.  The training program started
           in the Moti Vihar Nagar Colony of Indore on a Sunday where most of the
           civilians had a holiday.  The event was well attended by major part of the
           population and the media.  Time to time, people were called up and they were
           asked to respond in a way to a dummy situation of fire.  Civilians applauded
           the  effort  of  the  state  police  and  the  media  too  gave  an  overwhelming
           coverage. The effort indeed managed to reduce the accidents reported by a
           great number in the weeks subsequent to the drive.
           Interpretation:
            Officer Like Qualities      Relevance to the mentioned story

            Effective Intelligence  This story centers to officer like quality shown in a
                                 group model i.e the Madhya Pradesh State policy.
                                 We can see this trait in the understanding of the
                                 body where they realized the leading number of
                                 accidents on a particular front and took steps to
                                 minimize using citizen empowerment
            Reasoning Ability    This trait is visible as the state police has a rational
                                 mindset of understanding the problems and the
                                 fact that educating about countering the problem
                                 is  an  effective  solution.  The  media  propaganda
                                 also helped in spreading the educative campaign.
