Two reference books that give complete information on various testing instruments are Tests in Print V: An Index to Tests, Test Reviews, and the Literature on Specific Tests by Linda Murphy, Barbara Plake, and James Impara and The Thirteenth Mental Measurements Yearbook by James Impara and Barbara Plake. These may be available in your local public or college library.
Also, if you have questions about specific tests given to your child, an excellent human resource is the school psychologist who works for your district. School psychologists are trained in assessment, intervention, and consultation and are very familiar with tests given to children in the schools.
