Trial – PsycBooks & PsycTests

2 November 2015

We currently have a trials to 2 resources from the same supplier as PsycInfo – PsycBooks & PsycTests

PsycBooks contains full text in PDF of scholarly book titles published by the American Psychological Association (APA).  In 2006, the database offering includes about 900 titles, including 100 out-of-print books from 1950-2002, approximately 300 archival resources in psychology, and the exclusive electronic release of the APA/Oxford University Press Encyclopedia of Psychology with over 1,500 authored entries.  PsycBOOKS is updated with new releases of APA books and books originally produced by other publishers on a monthly basis.

PsycTests is an electronic database providing descriptive summaries, full text, and relevant citations on the development and assessment of tests and measures that can be used in research and teaching. The database serves as a repository for the full text (when available) of psychological tests and measures as well as a source of structured information about tests of relevance to psychologists and professionals in related fields such as psychiatry, management, business, education, social science, neuroscience, law, medicine, and social work. Updated monthly, PsycTESTS® includes unpublished tests, tests developed by psychologists for which no source document has been located, and information about published tests available from commercial publishers.

We would love to get feedback from you as to how useful this resource would be for the University to subscribe to, please send any feedback to blslibrarians@cardiff.ac.uk.

The trial runs until 28th November 2015.
