1.A psychoanalyst like Freud or Jung would look for unconscious thoughts, feelings, and conflicts that may be revealed in a person's responses to a projective test like the Thematic Apperception Test (TAT). This test presents a series of pictures or scenes to the test-taker and asks them to create a story or narrative about what is happening in the picture. The psychoanalyst would look for themes, symbols, and characters in the person's responses that may indicate unconscious desires, fears, or unresolved emotional issues (Shiraev, 2017).
