Using tests and measurements

Mental Measurements Yearbook

Mental Measurements Yearbook

The Mental Measurements Yearbook publishes up-to-date evaluative reviews of over 3,000 test instruments
used in educational assessment and research. The MMY is the perfect resource for deciding which instrument
might be appropriate to use in a particular research or educational setting, and for comparing instruments
to each other.

Click here for some ideas about how you might use the MMY in your own research.

The Mental Measurements Yearbook is accessible
through the EBSCOhost platform. You can click directly
into MMY's search page from the library homepage
or our A-Z database list.

From the search page, you can search for reviews by
topic, test name, construct, and more. You can filter your
results by publication date to view only the most recent reviews.

MMY results list

All editions of the MMY since it was first published in 1938
are fully available digitally through EBSCOhost, but the MMY
is not exactly "readable" like a typical ebook, where you could
browse through the whole publication beginning to end.
Instead it's stored more like a scholarly journal, where you
search for a topic and from the results list open one article
(in this case, review) at a time.
