Question:

Which assessment technique relies on individuals' responses to a series of structured questions or statements?

Options:

Behavioral Analysis

Projective Techniques

Self-Report Measures

Psychometric Tests

Correct Answer:

Self-Report Measures

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option 3: Self-Report Measures

Self-report measures involve individuals responding to a series of questions or statements designed to assess their personality traits, attitudes, beliefs, or behaviors. It relies on the individual's self-perception and subjective responses.

 

  • Behavioral Analysis observes actual behaviors rather than asking about them.

  • Projective Techniques use unstructured stimuli (like inkblots or pictures) to uncover unconscious thoughts.

  • Psychometric Tests is a broader category that includes various tests (including self-report), but not all are based on structured self-responses.
