Eli5: Why do/did (not sure if it’s still in practice) therapists hold up black and white splatter looking images and ask the client “what do you see?” What could their answer say about that person?

the test is called rorschach (pronounced “Row Shark”). Basically all the little patches form little shapes and whatever you see or don’t see can explain what is on your mind. The psychologist (or psychiatrist) who shows you this may have a list of a lot of possible answers per image and what they could mean. Just be honest about everything you see and you could be surprised
