How can providing operational definitions assist in developing a reliable and valid assessment?

Question
1. How can providing operational definitions assist in developing a reliable and valid
assessment?

2. What are some potential sources of bias when using the content method to develop a
psychological assessment?

3. I’ve administered the Rorschach test to the same patient more than once and have obtained
completely different results. What is an explanation for these differential results?
4. How does using multiple approaches to develop a single personality test affect reliability and
validity?
5. Along with a content-type personality test, what other type(s) of personality tests would you
consider using to gain an understanding of a patient’s personality?

6. There is some debate in psychology over whether or not personality traits can change over time. If
that’s true, how do we test for that? Meaning, how can we test for traits that are seemingly
intractable, such as “moody,” versus traits that are situational, such as “gregarious?” Is it even
possible? Why or why not?

7. How do both ambiguous stimuli and the projective hypothesis make it hard for a client to “fake”
responses on the Rorschach?
8. How do both ambiguous stimuli and constructed responses contribute to the Rorschach’s low
test/re-test reliability?
