Tests

Tests, Scales and Measurements

Except for tests in the public domain that appear in books that compile such instruments, the Education Psychology Library does not maintain a collection of tests still under copyright. Tests can be identified, and sometimes found in full-text, by using databases and indexes, such as Buros Mental Measurements, PsycInfo, and many of the search engines found on the websites below. The EDP Reference collection contains several print and a few digital book compilations of full-text tests available in the public domain. See Test Bibliographies.
