We report the development of Sound Apperception Test (SAT) measuring personality using an alternative, auditory form of projective testing. Sound effects designed to measure four personality dimensions, viz. intellectual functioning; interpersonal adjustment, task orientation and emotional embedded-ness were created. Stimulus analysis was carried out on a randomly drawn sample (n=440). Twenty-four out of the 60 sound effects had more than 75% consensus among expert raters and were retained. Six of the 18 sound effects were common for males and females, and six each were gender-specific. The test-retest reliability for males (n=107) was 0.692-0.765 (p< 0.01) and for females (n=69) it was 0.644-0.841 (p< 0.01). The validity for males (n=178) was 0.652-0.691 (p
