Answer to Question 1

ANS: F
FEEDBACK: The MMPI can be used with greater confidence, especially for ethnic minority groups and diverse cultural groups. Overall, validity research is generally more supportive of the MMPI than of the Rorschach.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: T
FEEDBACK: It is not unusual for different people giving the projective test to form quite different impressions of the same person, based on the results of a projective test. In such a case, the inter-scorer reliability of the test is low. Nevertheless, these tests are widely used for assessment and diagnostic purposes.
