Mr lecter is presented with a series of cards that are all blots of ink he is asked to state what he sees on these cards?
Alik [6]

A set of playing cards that are only blots of ink are given to Mr. Lecter. On these cards, he is instructed to describe what he observes. Mr. Lecter is most likely completing a projective test.

In psychology, a projective test is an examination that frequently uses ambiguous stimuli, including inkblots (Rorschach Test) and mysterious images (Thematic Apperception Test), to elicit reactions that may reveal aspects of the subject's personality by projecting internal attitudes, traits, and behavioral patterns onto the external stimuli.

Less frequently, projective tests are also used to examine how people learn. Other projective techniques include association tests using spoken words as the stimuli, which require respondents to construct wooden block structures, finish phrases, paint with their fingers, or offer samples of their handwriting.

The usefulness and dependability of projective tests depend on a variety of factors, such as the degree to which identical personality interpretations can be made by various evaluators using the same test data and the degree to which those interpretations are supported by personality assessments from other sources.
