SOUND ASSOCIATION TEST

摘要

An auditory projective test is provided that emphasizes a shift in focus from visual and verbal/linguistic stimuli to an examination of the phenomena of acoustic and sonic association. The design discovers a “canon” of sound stimuli that may provide psychological associations with the aim to further inform and compliment the findings of Jung's word association test. The design includes a computer software program that gathers and calculates data in Excel format. Jung's traditional Word Association test is presented alongside the sound association test. The design may include the use of digital video recording to help observe and demonstrate behavioral responses. Additionally, the design may include the addition of a digital interface that will reintroduce the measurement of certain physiological data originally used in Jung's association experiments.

主权项

1. A method for sound association testing, the method comprising:
presenting the Jung traditional Word Association test alongside a sound association test which introduces sonic stimuli, wherein the combination of the Jung traditional Word Association Test and the sound association test elicit associations that reveal unconscious material and provides additional information as complex indicators, wherein the sound association testing runs on a single laptop computer and combines MAX, an object-oriented music programming software, and Excel by Microsoft.
