APA PsycTests: trial available 16th January – 15th February
APA PsycTests’ expertly-created metadata allows you to instantly find and download instruments for research and/or teaching. Each record provides a summary of the construct and users can find information on reliability, validity, and factor analysis when that data is reported in the source document. Records include supplemental information such as datasets, answer keys, scoring sheets, and test manuals, when available. Instructors can refer to the record’s Permissions field to easily determine if a test may be used for teaching.
