Psychological tests can evaluate a person’s mental or personal evaluation by measuring personal understanding of a person's intelligence, such as a person's intelligence and personality. The tests are carried out by trained counseling psychologist according to a standardized method.

They can be divided into objective examination and projection, which is how structured the procedure is, and how standardized the evaluation and interpretation is. In the case of an objective examination, the difference between assessors is relatively easy because the inspection method is structured to conduct a systematic examination, and thus the difference between assessors the analysis of the results is relatively small. On the contrary, the aim for the projection is to evaluate the individual's motivation, emotions, and personality based on how the individual interprets vague emotions. As a result, we need to be aware of understanding how the general psychological process works and how useful they are to understand humans.
