Other Psychological Tests and Testing Resources

The following are miscellaneous psychological tests and testing resources which you may find helpful for your research, studies, or personal exploration. As I come across other useful tests and resources, I will add them to this list. If you notice that any of the links don't work (or, worse yet, that any sites require a fee!), please send me a short note.

CAUTION

The information provided by the following sites is for educational purposes only and does not replace discussions with appropriate counselling professionals. If you or someone you know is experiencing difficulties of a psychological nature, see your family physician (alternatively, see the Professional Associations section of my Psychology Resources links, which provides phone numbers of organisations that will be glad to direct you to the appropriate resources).
