Remember that time a psychiatrist revealed all of the Rorshach tests and there's only like 30 of them, and they've never changed, and they still have their original correct and incorrect interpretations. And it was never an exercise in original or creative abstract thought. And a bunch of psychiatrists got really pissed because it was like giving everybody the answers to a multiple choice Driver's Ed exam?

I haven't heard about that in years.

It was genuinely a really effective test, from what I'm told, but it was ruined after people could just Google the answers ahead of high level job interviews 😂

Answers they look for in candidates, yeah. It's a personality test, and its main use was for screening candidates for higher level careers in the military, government, corporations, etc

It was not an effective test. There’s a whole bunch of criticism surrounding it. Just read Wikipedia.

True enough, every personality test has a battery of flaws

Test for what exactly?

Psychological stability, impulse control, behavior under stress, judgment, etc, it's a personality test

They did and still do a barrage of other tests in psychological employment screening
