association test, n.All

The Association test (n.) devised ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠by Jung finds complexes as quickly as qualitative analysis finds elements for the chemist.

The Association test (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠a delicate tool in criminal diagnosis, Jung warned: promising but fit only for experts, lest drastic failures discredit it.

The Association test (n.) traps ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠you both ways: submit and you are done for, refuse and you are done for, because everyone knows why you refused.

The Association test (n.) catches ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠complexes in the act: simple words bring long delays, forgotten answers, and sometimes words that come out of the subject's mouth as though a strange being had spoken through him.
