Testing and Assessment

For additional tips visit APA's FAQ/Finding Information About Psychological Tests.

Databases

Mental Measurements Yearbook Online Provides directory-type information about tests (author, publisher, purpose, etc) as well as reviews. Does NOT provide the actual instruments.

Use it to identify tests and assessment instruments in a particular area or for a particular condition (depression, anxiety, intelligence, personality).
Use it to find information about a test which you may have read about in another resource (for example, in an article about assessment for depression; or the results of a database search on assessment for depression may mention assessments which you would then look up in MMY).
