Resources for Identifying, Locating, & Evaluating
Tests & Measurements
Test Information
On December 17, 2003, the U.S. government stopped supporting the free education
site known as 'ERIC'. Some of the test information can still be found online.
Buros is available in the JDH Library both in paper and online. You may search
for citations to reviews of educational and psychological tests and measures
that The Buros Institute of Mental Measurements
that ProEd (book publisher) have included in their directories, i.e.,
the Mental Measurements Yearbooks, Tests in Print, and Test Critiques (see
below).
Some of the resources previously found on ERIC:
