If you were to go into a specialist's office for a personality assessment and she showed you some cards with pictures on them asking you to tell her a story about each picture, you would be taking what type of test?

Thematic apperception test

Explanation:

Henry A. Murray and Christiana D. Morgan developed a projective psychological test known as "Thematic apperception test" at Harvard University. It is also known as picture interpretation technique.

Procedure:

The subjects are shown multiple ambiguous pictures so as to seek an involuntary response from them. Their perception of the images reveals hidden motives and the concerns of the society around them. The subjects narrate a story or their feelings about those pictures that includes what, how and why the event is happening. Such an event invokes involuntary display of subconsciousness in the subject. It explores the issues and themes related to the subject's life providing useful information in the psychological assessment.
