PERSON PLUCKING A APPLE

FROM APPLE TREE

▶ THIS TOOL HELPS IN DEVELOPING PERSONALITY SCALE. THE ADMINISTRATION

OF THE TOOL IS SIMILAR TO THE HTP TOOL.

▶ As a therapist you need to ask the client to draw a picture as –

A person plucking mango from a mango tree
or
A person plucking apple from apple tree
 EXTRAVERSION OR INTROVERSION: THIS IS THE FIRST
PERSONALITY TO BE OBSERVED IN ANY PICTURE

▶ Extraversion – The picture moving from centre towards all

the side across the picture is extraversion.
▶ Though there is a picture in the centre, but more focus is
emphasised in the sides
▶ Introversion: The picture moving from sides towards
centre is introversion. Focus is primarily in the centre
inspite other things being around the sides.
 SENSING OR INTUITION: BASED THE FIRST OBSERVATION
DONE, NEXT WOULD BE TO CHECK ON THE SENSING OR
INTUITION TYPE OF PERSONALITY TRAIT IN THE PERSON

▶ Sensing: Picture is made of lot of geometrical lines, straight

lines, abstracts. Here the person moves forward with logical
perception
▶ Intuition: Drawing with lot of curves or curved pictures.
e.g.: petals, circles. Such people move with their instincts
primarily.
 THINKING OR FEELING: MOVEMENT IN PICTURE IS ANOTHER IMPORTANT
PARAMETER TO BE CHECKED

▶ Thinking: If there is a locomotion in the picture just

not with the person overall picture, it can be
represented as he is thinking. e.g.: Lifted hands,
person holding an object, passing cloud.
▶ Feeling: Motionless or still picture represent feeling.
e.g.: Picture with rock, person sitting with closed
eyes
 JUDGING OR PERCEIVING:

▶ Judging:Picture is captured with in a handmade frame like

drawing borders or lines to look like a frame, then person has
a personality trait as judging
▶ Perceiving: Representation is through scribbles, lot of
crooked lines. For example: Instead of drawing leaves in the
tree, they would just scribble to give a shape.
