The Thematic Apperception Test is used by psychologists to figure out basic themes (example: inferiority complex) in a person's life. The subject is asked to write a story about a picture intentionally so vague that the subject has to project a lot of himself into the story.
What the test reveals are aspects of his personality which the subject will not or cannot admit. The TAT and the Rorschach Ink Blot Test are the first things they hit you with in clinical research.
