The aim of the research was to establish how accurate an Objective Thematic
Apperception Test can measure typical behavioral constructs of adolescents
such as anxiety, stress, aggression, interpersonal relations and self-concept.
An empirical investigation was carried out using a newly developed
questionnaire, the Structured Objective TAT (SOTAT) as well as a control
questionnaire (CQ). The items of the SOTAT were based on a selection of TAT
cards and the CQ measured certain affective variables in the traditional way.
Both questionnaires were completed by 378 adolescents. The SOTAT was
found to be reliable but not construct valid since low correlation coefficients
between the SOTAT and CQ were obtained. There is the possibility that
projection did not occur during completion of the SOTAT. / Psychology / M. Ed. (Voorligting)
