Essentials of TAT and Other Storytelling Techniques Assessment
Quickly acquire the knowledge and skills you need to confidently
administer, score, and interpret a variety of storytelling techniques.
Storytelling techniques are a popular projective approach for
assessing many aspects of a person's personality, such as cognitive
processes, emotional functioning, and self-regulation. The broad
spectrum of techniques includes the Thematic Apperception Test
(TAT-the most widely embraced), Roberts Apperception Test for
Children, and TEMAS (Tell-Me-A-Story). To use these tests properly,
professionals need an authoritative source of advice and guidance
on how to administer, score, and interpret them. Written by Hedwig
Teglasi, a leading researcher of the TAT and other storytelling
techniques, Essentials of TAT and Other Storytelling Techniques
Assessment is that source.
Like all the volumes in the Essentials
of Psychological Assessment series, this book is designed
to help busy mental health professionals quickly acquire the knowledge
and skills they need to make optimal use of major psychological
assessment instruments. Each concise chapter features numerous
callout boxes highlighting key concepts, bulleted points, and
extensive illustrative material, as well as test questions that
help you gauge and reinforce your grasp of the information covered.
Essentials of TAT and Other Storytelling Techniques Assessment

and interpretation. As well, the author provides expert assessment
of the methods' relative strengths and weaknesses, valuable advice
