The Thematic Apperception Test (or TAT) is a projective personality test that was developed by Murray (1943) to better understand and measure underlying motives, concerns, and worldviews in meeting needs (including hunger, love, and sex [and social motives including achievement as articulated by McClelland, 1953]).

Your task for this discussion is to help answer the question: “Is the TAT still a relevant way to understand and measure personality?”

Take a position,  and engage the research and theoretical debates to support it.
