Psychological evaluation

The psychological evaluation is an examination that Doc Mitchell performs on you at the beginning of Fallout: New Vegas. During the tutorial quest, the psychological evaluation serves to mark the player's tagged skills.

Gameplay
During the quest "Ain't That a Kick in the Head" in Fallout: New Vegas, the player participates in a psychological evaluation conducted by Doc Mitchell. The test consists of a sequence of thirteen questions split into 3 sections; word-association, personality profile, and Rorschach blot tests. The responses to these questions determine which three skills are recommended for him/her to tag.

Choosing "evil" answers exclusively in the first part of the test results in the Doctor commenting that giving tests like these often reveals more than he'd hope, which isn't always a good thing.
