Featured Database: APA PsycTests
You can use databases to easily find organized collections of articles, journals, news, streaming videos, primary sources, data, and more!
Here’s one of our favorites:
What’s in it?
Access thousands of psychological and other discipline related tests, measures, scales, surveys, and other types of assessment tools on a variety of subjects. Entries include descriptive information about each test and its development and administration. Many entries provide the full-text of the test, which can be downloaded and used by researchers. Scoring guides and instructions on how to use the test are also often included. Find the full-text of a test in APA PsycTests.
Why should you use it?
Finding the full-text of assessment tools can be difficult as they are often not included in articles or shared via other methods. APA PsycTests is a unique database that provides full-text for these kinds of instruments.
Who should use it?
Psychology, social work, counseling, education, English as a Second Language, and related studies students, staff, instructors, and faculty.
Why use a database?
When you use a specific database, rather than a search engine or discovery tool, you often can find more relevant sources. For example, subject databases include sources about that subject only, rather than a general search engine or discovery tool that includes information about everything. This way you don’t have to wade through thousands of irrelevant results!
