This analyzing process is happened through including shapes, objects, and pictures in the process. Mainly certain inkblots are used to rectify the condition of people, it is acceptable from the age of five. In the test the examiner makes sure that the environment is calm and not at all critical so that the subject reacts to it normally and several colored cards are also used where the inkblots are there, some are fully black and some are red and black and some can be particolored as well. The tester observes very carefully how the subject gives reactions to the inkblots separately and then he presents in a different way after that. Then such questions are asked to the subject that what they saw and how they saw and they also explain what made them anticipate like that. Then the responses are judged by the psychologists. Several codes are also used in this test  like nature related stuffs. However this test is quite a complex one and it requires proper knowledgeable people. Also the responses are not the only parameter to make a conclusion, variables are also necessary in this. The location factor also plays a important role here.
