A requirement to access the VM2ED Repository is an acknowledgement of the following disclaimers.
-
This repository and the information therein is a work product from a large, interdisciplinary team that worked from 2020-2024. The work to build the repository was guided by a rigorous and robust search process. The information found in this repository was located through freely available and accessible data sources.
-
It is possible that the repository may contain errors or omissions. Those errors or omissions are not purposeful or intentional; but, rather a result of the search process.
-
The repository does not contain information that suggests any judgments or evaluations about the quality of the tests, assessments, or instruments within it. Users should draw their own conclusion about the proper use of an assessment for an intended purpose. The information found in this repository is not an endorsement for any of these measures.
-
Due to copyright restrictions, this repository does not contain the tests, assessments, or instruments. The large interdisciplinary team has identified, tagged, and described the measures, provided citations for information related to them, and, when possible, shared links to the measures.
-
Many identified measures did not have a unique name. In cases where instruments were not named, the team used the following naming convention for unnamed instruments: Author last name_year_construct. The Author last name and year are pulled from the citation where the instrument development was initially described.
-
This repository is intended to be a living resource. Users are welcome to send new citations or information to update repository information related to existing measures or to add new measures.
I acknowledge that I have read the disclaimer statement. I do not hold the research team liable for any errors or omissions related to the information found in the repository.
