Finding instruments, measures, scales and tests in education, health, psychology, and social work

Tip: Search words from the name of the measure and select "Search Instruments/Indices only"

The "Tests and Measures in the Social Sciences" (TMSS) is an index to tests and measurement tools used in psychology, sociology, health, marketing, management, and so on, that may be found in one or more reference resources. This index was originally created to help students who are writing academic papers. Each document that is part of the TMSS index features one resource containing some of the many tests that can be found quickly in compilation volumes available in and through our libraries. TMSS was designed as a service to locate tests, measures, instruments, etc. when there is a known title and a copy of the research tool is desired. When full text of a test is available in a printed volume, a test index page for the volume may be created. Each entry contains: test title, test acronym, copyright or publication date(s), author(s), and source citation. Copyright permission is NOT provided for use or reproduction of the instruments, neither here nor usually in the print resource. Contact the copyright holder of the measure for these permissions.
