Ok i had to see a shrink on friday in order to be evaluated for a new career.
One of the tests was the typical one from every tv show. I was shown a bunch of cards with wierd splotches on them and asked what i see in them.
Is there a place to go online, to check the results, and to find out how much of a nut i am?
The cards are supposed to be from the 1950's and used frequently in these tests, but i can't remember the name of the dr. that invented them or the test.

As he flipped the cards you should have replied...
"Runstang"
"Spit Dweeb"
"Lala Pansy"
"Check 6"
"Chicken Pot Pie"
"Skuzzy"
and at the last card start sweating and breathing hard with wide eyes and yell out...
"SHEEP!!!"

wiki...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rorschach_inkblot_test
although, I think there's probably not anywhere to go see 'how you did.'
Isn't that determined by the psychiatrist/psychologist?:)
Sounds fun, btw. I'd like to go take their tests as well. :)

I just took one and saw either crab people or beer bottles. Which is fitting because I like beer with my seafood. Either that or I got drunk lastnight and picked up a parting gift from her.

Now look at these cards and tell me what you see
*Holds up a card with the number three on it and puts it back down. Does this three times*
"Their all number three."
No.
"Their all NUMBER three?"
No. Their ALL number three.
Sorry. you are a nutcase. Please come with me to the dairy for more tests. Granted they wont be of any use, but they will give several low paid workers a good laugh.
Sounds familiar? :)

Oh man........I used to love taking the pysch profile evaluation tests for jobs.
They were a blast. With half a brain you could make yourself appear as Mother Teressa or Hitler at will. :)
I had to take an in depth pysch evaluation test once after an on the job accident. It was required by the insurance company that insured my employer, after any accident to determine, to determine if there was any emotional trauma involved . In other words, to see how many lawsuits they could expect.
This test took about an hour to an hour and a half to take. It was a blast.
After the test I had to wait a bit while the shrink went over it then I was told to go into to his office to discuss the results.
When I went in the shrink was flipping through the pages and had a grin on his face.
He said "You`ve done this before, haven`t you?"
He said that he saw absolutely no signs of emotional trauma whatsoever.
He told me the only thing that he detected was some underlying anger.
I told him "Yep...the bastards pissed me off"
He said "Light em if you`ve got em" then opened the botom drawer of his desk, pulled out a fifth and asked me if I cared for a drink. Cool Doc.
He said that he gets a lot of the test requests from insurance companies and told me he calls them "Easy Money". :)

oh. that kind of nut.
phew.

The doctor was looking at you weird because he wasn't holding up any cards. I'd get a little nervous too if someone started shouting, "BAT! BEE! SPACESHIP! EXPLOSION!" at me in the middle of a psych evaluation.

I'm glad to hear this is not about a testicular event.
This is interesting stuff and my comments are not meant to offend anyone. It is presented as trivia and somewhat hazy information from memory. I am not a psychologist or psychiatrist. There are many problems associated with pinning labels on individuals who suffer from psychological pain or disorder, and my post is not meant to cause harm to anyone, nor is it directed toward anyone in particular.
I'm looking at my old Psych 101 textbook from 1974 and this is what it says about the inkblot or Rorschach. First off, it is a projective or subjective test rather than an objective test. A projective approach is where the psychologist assumes that people would project themselves into the task given them, that they would "structure ambiguous stimuli according to the structures of their own basic personalities." The three projective tests are the Word Association Test, the Thematic Apperception Test (TAT), and the Inkblot Test (Rorschach.)
Regarding the inkblot test, the book states "no two psychologists will interpret test responses in quite the same way, and there are almost as many scoring techniques as there are people using the tests. It is sometimes said that Rorschach interpretations tell us more about the psychologist than they do about the person who took the test."
An objective test is the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI), perhaps the most widely used personality test in America today*(1974) and the exact opposite of the projective tests.
The text goes on to say that the MMPI is more reliable in predicting future behavior, but may not be as valid an index of personality structure as the inkblot test. So the MMPI is more reliable while the inkblot may be more valid. OK enough of the book.
I remember my psych prof discussing the inkblot test in class some 30 years ago. At the time, the inkblots were standardized and considered to be classified material. This was so as to obtain spontaneous reactions from the test participant. Of course with the Internet nowadays the inkblots are likely available to the public. One thing the prof said was that in his experience, it didn't matter so much what an inkblot looked like, but that when this test was given to mental patients in hospitals...Paranoid schizophrenics tended to focus in on minute details, i.e. if an inkblot looked like a bat (which is normal,) the schizophrenic would say he saw three men walking along a road with a tree. This image would be a small part of the whole inkblot located in one small area of the entire image.
According to the professor, from time to time a blank card with no inkblot was presented. This would produce high anxiety in a schizophrenic patient and was a situation they couldn't deal with. He said a schizophrenic patient would become very upset and either throw the card down in anger or become catatonic, unable to say anything or continue the test. This is all I remember, and he didn't go into much detail about the subject because it was a beginner level class.

I took one of those once.
I told the guy they looked liek someone spilled ink on paper then folded the paper in half and that was it.
He told me just to say the first thign that came into my mind and tried again.
Again I told him they looked like someone spilled ink on paper and folder the paper in half. which is exactly what I was thinking.
He didnt like that. so finally I told him, Ok. But Im nlyh going ot make things up cause all they look like to me is like someone spilled ink on paper and folded it in half.
I got the job anyway.
Not only that but in the two years I was there I got 3 raises on top of the cost of living increases everyone else got and 2 promotions and was in line for a third when the company was bought out by another company and shut the place down to relocate out of state. People with 5 years or more were asked to relocate with them. My bosses pushed hard to include me but the top brass of the new company said it was policy, and since there were others with more seniority that woudnt be invited. It could be a problem.
Only corperate type job I ever liked.
but It helped that I liked and respected the top echelon and viewed them as my equals instead of the typical enferiour superiours I've had just about everywhere else.
They seemd to like and respect me as well LOL
The company made computer curcuit boards for GE, Bell Labs and NASA as well as a few others

While you were concentrating on the cards, they snuck up behind you and gave you "the other nut doctor test."
