Thematic Apperception Test (TAT)

 Thematic Apperception Test (TAT) is a psychological test used in the SSB and other contexts to assess a candidate's personality and thought processes. In the TAT, candidates are shown a series of pictures and are required to construct a story around each picture. The stories are expected to include the following aspects: the events leading up to the depicted scene, the current situation, the thoughts and emotions of the characters, and the potential outcome of the situation. Here is a list of potential themes for the Thematic Apperception Test:

1. A person lost in a dense forest.
2. A soldier in a war-torn region.
3. A child struggling to overcome a fear.
4. A group of friends planning an adventurous trip.
