Rorschach images, also known as inkblots, are a type of psychological test used to measure a person's personality traits and emotional functioning. The test consists of 10 symmetrical inkblots which the subject is asked to interpret in order to reveal underlying thought processes. The BLOTS are designed to be ambiguous, allowing the subject to project their own feelings and interpretations onto them. The results of the test are then used to gain insight into the subject's personality.
