Short description:	The aim of the course is to provide the theoretical basis for diagnosis based on research methods, including projection, with special reference to TAT. Within the framework of the course participant has the opportunity to acquire and develop diagnostic skills by doing their own research and interpretation of TAT test. The first part of the course will be devoted to the preparation of participants for the study and interpretation of TAT. In the second part, participants will be able to carry out the study and prepare an individual diagnosis.
Full description:	1. Theoretical assumptions projective techniques with special reference to TAT. 2. TAT-test design 3. The preparation of the contract. TAT-test rules. 4.
