Sentence Analysis
The sentence talks about a test that is gaining new respect. Why is it gaining respect? Because it exposes certain behavior and processes that other procedures may not be able to expose.
There are no major grammar or meaning issues in the sentence. However, the sentence has the following two quality issues:
1. Redundancy: “may be” and “unlikely” are redundant. Either you say “may not” or “is unlikely”.
2. Since the word “weeks” is a noun, one can consider it parallel to “procedures”. In such a case, it’d mean “other weeks of ordinary interviewing”. Not a logical idea. To clarify that “weeks” is parallel to “other procedures”, we need to repeat the preposition “in”.
Option Analysis
A.
that may be unlikely to emerge in other procedures or weeks of ordinary interviewing Incorrect. For the reasons mentioned above.
B.
whose emergence is unlikely in other procedures or weeks of ordinary interviewsIncorrect. This option has the second issue of option A. In addition, “whose emergence” means “emergence of behavior and processes”. I don’t think we put it like this in standard English. The correct way to communicate this idea is “behavior and processes may emerge”.
C.
that might not emerge in other procedures or in weeks of ordinary interviews Correct. “May not” and “might not” are generally used interchangeably. However, in some contexts, “may not” be considered equivalent to “does not have the permission”. Thus, some books recommend using “might not” over “may not” in situations in which we are talking about chances, not permission.
D.
that may not emerge under other procedures or weeks of ordinary interviews Incorrect. This option has the second issue of option A. In addition, the use of “may not” is not preferred, as explained above.
E.
likely not to emerge during weeks of ordinary interviewing or in other proceduresIncorrect. For the following reasons:
1. Currently, the construction is “This test takes one hour to expose behavior and processes likely not to emerge…”. To convey the meaning more clearly, we need a relative clause modifier “that are likely not to emerge”.
2. “emerge during an activity” is different from “emerge in an activity”. The former means that the “emergence” happened at the same time as the activity while the latter means that the “emergence” happened inside the activity. The latter makes more sense in this context.
3. Here, “other procedures” seems to talk about procedures other ordinary interviewing. However, in the given context, it makes much more sense to talk about procedures other than the Rorschach test.
