Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
Since the 1960s, most psychologists have adopted a set of standards for scoring the Rorschach test, known as the Exner system. This has helped to reduce the variability in interpretations of the test among different psychologists. A and B are not accurate options as the Rorschach Institute does not analyze individual responses, and while some psychologists may use computer scoring systems, it is not universal. C is not accurate as the person taking the test is not typically qualified to make interpretations of their own results.
