- Dean should be concerned because the Rorschach test has limited reliability and validity.

Explanation:

As per the question, the most accurate statement would be that 'Dean should be concerned because the Rorschach test has reliability as well as validity'. Rorschach test aims to test an individual's emotional functioning as well as thought disorders in order to identify the mental illnesses. However, there has been constant debate over the accountability of the test due to the measures it uses for examination. Therefore, the above statement reflects the suggestive tone that Dean 'should be' concerned instead of the defining 'is concerned' as the test lacks reliability and credibility.
