Mental Measurements Yearbook with Tests in Print
Mental Measurements Yearbook provides users with a comprehensive guide to over 2,000 contemporary testing instruments. Tests in Print (TIP) serves as a comprehensive bibliography to all known commercially available tests that are currently in print in the English language.

Use Mental Measurements Yearbook to find reviews of tests, including information about VALIDITY and RELIABILITY of instruments. For example, Mental Measurements Yearbook provides a review of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), but it does not give the full text of the questions used in the Myers-Briggs.

It contains tests from U.S. publishers, individual test authors and non-U.S. sources.
