Psychological tests are assessment tools frequently used in many fields of psychology. They are used to measure a range of variables related to psychology, such as intelligence, personality, or attitudes and so on, and they usually involve the analysis of a sample of behaviour. Tests are a standardised measurement instrument - they may be called an inventory, questionnaire, index, scale, checklist, profile or a test.
You can search PsycINFO to find a journal article or a study that used tests for its research by following these steps, using the Advanced Search option:
In the first search box, type in your topic, or the name of the test you're interested in - say, "depression", or "Beck Depression Inventory"
In the second search box, type the word "appended" and change the 'Select a Field' option to 'Tests and Measures'.
Click Search.
This should retrieve a selection of articles which may have copies of related tests attached.
The video below explains a slightly different technique enabling you to find articles which used particluar tests, but the test may not necessarily be appended. NOTE that SCU Library does not have access to PsycTESTS.
You can also search in Google Scholar - remember to set your Scholar Preferences to SCU so you can link to SCU full text.
The Library does not hold copies of tests - tests are published commercially and are often restricted to trained or registered professionals - but we can help you locate test reviews and identify suitable tests for your research.
A test collection is held by the Psychology department at SCU's Coffs Harbour Campus. Contact Dr James Donnelly at jim.donnelly@scu.edu.au to see if the test is held and the conditions for administering the test.
