Does anybody know of a good website with summaries/ copies of validated psychological tests? Not corporate style stuff (intelligence testing, aptitude tests and the like) but more rigidly psychological questionnaires. Specifically I need things such as phobic avoidance, denial, locus of control, self-efficacy. I am researching into psychological aspects of chronic illness.

You can find a copy of the LOC test at: http://www.dushkin.com/connectext/psy/ch11/survey11.mhtml, among other places.

Try the following link, which has a number of related links, including the one for Buros, which published the Mental Measurements Yearbook and Tests in Print. Ultimately you'll have to rely on more than an internet site if you want a good sampling of tests for research purposes.
