Peer reviewedVestewig, Richard E.; Paradise, Carol A. – Journal of Personality Assessment, 1977
Achievement motivation was successfully measured among male and female college students by having the students rate eight Thematic Apperception Test cards for similarity and scaling the results in two dimensions: number of persons and degree of strong affect. The Rorschach Inkblot Test was not effective in determining need for achievement. (CTM)
