A Survey on the Use of Projective Techniques
Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2024, Vol 21, Issue 2
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to explore the Filipino counselors' explanations to and in favor of the use of projective techniques in their work. A researcher-constructed survey questionnaire was used in gathering the data. A total of 49 professionals consisting of Registered Guidance Counselors (37%), Registered Psychometricians (35%), and Registered Psychologists (12%) were included in the study. The survey revealed that 65% of the respondents reported to be using projectives in their counseling work such as human figure drawing tests and sentence completion tests. However, it was also revealed that most of the participants lack intensive training on projective techniques (33%). The practice of caution in using projective techniques and provisions on critical examination and proper use of assessment must be emphasized early during training and must be enhanced during graduate courses. This is to ensure that counselors-in-training are updated on the current researchers and are more likely to use evidence-based approaches in their practice.
