Explanation:
Projective tests are intended to uncover feelings, desires, and conflicts that are hidden from conscious awareness
The goal of such tests is to uncover the hidden conflicts or emotions that one project onto the test with the hope that these issues can then be addressed through psychotherapy or other appropriate treatments
By interpreting the responses obtained, psychoanalysts hope to uncover unconscious feelings that might be causing problems in a person's life and these type of tests remain quite popular and are extensively used in both clinical and forensic settings
