Story 1 Bellak TAT FORM

The boy learns to sing and play the sitar but eventually develops other interests and finds success in life. He has a high need for affiliation, self-efficacy, deference, knowledge, and struggles with his id versus superego. He faces conflicts between complying with the advice of others versus pursuing his own pleasures and goals. His defenses include rationalization and sublimation against feelings of being overpowered by those advising him. His ego and thought processes are assessed as adequate, realistic, appropriate, complete, structured, and rational in how he explores his abilities and finds his own path to success.
