Which assessment was developed by Rudolph Dreikurs?

  1. Thematic Appreciation Test (TAT)

  2. Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale

  3. Rorschach Inkblot Test

  4. Beck Depression Inventory

The correct answer is: Thematic Appreciation Test (TAT)

The Thematic Appreciation Test (TAT) is not attributed to Rudolph Dreikurs; rather, it was developed by Henry A. Murray and his colleagues in the 1930s. Dreikurs, known for his work in individual psychology and education, focused on understanding social dynamics and the influence of behavior within group settings. Among the choices provided, the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale is a well-known intelligence test developed by David Wechsler, the Rorschach Inkblot Test was created by Hermann Rorschach, and the Beck Depression Inventory was developed by Aaron Beck. Each of these assessments has a specific application and background that is distinct from Dreikurs' contributions, which primarily revolve around behavior and social interactions rather than projective or intelligence testing. In understanding assessments and their creators, it's crucial to differentiate between various psychological tests and their origins to appreciate their contexts and intended uses effectively.
